Overview
This is a list of organizations of interest noted throughout investigations as operating in BC.
World Government
30 by 30
- Kunming-Montréal Global Biodiversity Framework, signed by 195 UN member states in December, 2022 (including Canada).
- Goal of “protecting 30% of lands and waters by 2030”, primarily through FN governance. This basically means the agenda is to close off at least 30% of BC’s territory to any kind of economic development or productive industry.
Canadian Government
CIRNAC
Natural Resources Canada
Statistics Canada
First Nations
Indigenous Protected and Conserved Areas (IPCA)
- More of a concept. Essentially land use agreements with bands/tribal councils, where bands dictate what happens on that land, especially in terms of economic development.
- These IPCAs align with the “30 by 30” agenda.
A-Tlegay Member Nations
- FN alliance over coastal fishing rights.
- K’ómoks First Nation, Kwiakah First Nation, Tlowitsis Nation, We Wai Kai Nation, and Wei Wai Kum First Nation
- Ottawa signed an agreement with them on February 24 2026.
Non-Government Organization
BC Conservation Fund
- A subsidiary of the BC Parks Foundation.
BC Parks Foundation
- Purchases properties like ranches (anecdotal) and other rural areas, holds them as land holdings under the pretense of heritage sites, parks and “Indigenous protected areas”.
- Part of the “30 by 30” United Nations scheme.
- Ties with the BC Conservation Fund.
BC Wildlife Federation
- Represents public stakeholders in regards to issues like hunting/fishing regulations and wildlife conservation.
Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program
- Tied with IPCAs, FN bands, Crown corporations, BC and Federal government.
Islands Trust
In their own words, “Islands Trust is a special purpose government mandated to preserve and protect over 450 Islands in the Salish Sea.” Appears to be missing the actual word for what they are.
- Bowen Island has a special “IM” (Island Municipality) status in the Census Subdivision dataset. This falls under the Islands Trust jurisdiction.
