  • Feeding the Komodo Dragon: The Case on Saturna — Saturna Island pays a share of the Islands Trust budget more than double its population share into an institution whose costs have outrun inflation for decades, whose local committee is chaired by a trustee another island elected, and whose enforcement regime drew formal recommendations from BC's Ombudsperson. Drawn entirely from the Trust's own pages, local press, and Saturna residents' documented record, this is the case against the institution — not against the elected islanders inside it.
