A private political project, plainly identified.

Abolish the Islands Trust was founded and is maintained privately by Tony Aly, a vibe coder on Denman Island. It is not operated by government, the Islands Trust, a regional district, a community association, or locally endorsed island chapters.

Funding and editorial control

The project is currently funded privately by Tony Aly, who controls its editorial positions. Material donations, sponsors, paid promotion, or transfers of control will be disclosed before use.

Document and editorial methods

The archive preserves original source URLs, separates claimed publication date from ingestion time, mirrors files where possible, calculates checksums, and extracts text automatically. Automated dates, text, and entity mentions can be wrong and are not official findings. Political opinion is separate from source documents.

Corrections and privacy

Report factual, date, or extraction errors to corrections@abolishislandstrust.org. Public petition names appear only by signer choice; email and management links remain private.

Personal-interest disclosure

Tony Aly is involved with Camp Denman, also known as Elkhaven and Elk Haven, on Denman Island. He has a personal interest in land-use and bylaw-enforcement matters affecting that site. That relationship is disclosed wherever these projects discuss Camp Denman, Elkhaven, or any public-record file about the site.

How the five live properties fit together

All five are up. They are Tony Aly's private projects, not a federation of local chapters.

  • landintelligence.co — data spine: cited parcel records across 17 BC areas.
  • denmanisland.co — everyday Denman utility: ferries, directory, parcel map, Land Use Bylaw 186.
  • denmantown.org — the Denman governance-study campaign.
  • abolishislandstrust.org — the Trust-wide campaign: island pages, archive, case essays.
  • Hornby, Gabriola, Salt Spring, and the other island-town domains — live per-island sites with open petitions. A domain is not a local chapter.

2026 election boundary

Candidate recruitment and ready-made campaign advertising are paused. No election advertising will be bought or boosted until sponsor status, independence, authorization wording, accounts, and reporting obligations are confirmed with Elections BC.
