Dogwood BC (formerly Dogwood Initiative)
To fully understand the evolution of Dogwood BC and how it came into being one must know their history. These are all people who years ago that protesting can become a lucrative trade and remains as such this very day. Our view is different from the world view as we will focus on the who and the effects on us as a local community. We take you from the top, in a decending order to the start of thier way out of working for a living.

Dogwood Deception
We just were updated, and thought we would share with you a bit more information. Considering we speculated that Dogwood BC. and Skeena Watershed Conservation Coalition are activly colaberating, we can now verify that Kia Nagata was also in Australia, enjoying a nice vacation at the funded by Dogwood BC donations. Not to forget funded by the major American organizations like the Wilberforce Foundation.

Contrary to the radical spin being put on April Nishimura by the radical aboriginals from Hazelton. The explanation, April Nishimura was and is a Japanese/American not Gitxsan. She was adopted by Yvonne Lattie, one of the three radical chiefs from Hazelton that object to what the majority of Gitxsan have decided on. Yvonne Lattie was also one of the three radicals who blockaded the CN rail line to protest the CGL pipeline. People do not adopt adults unless they have an agenda, in this push on media spin, they now claim this American is a local Gitxsan. This is more of how dirty and deceitful propaganda and money filter down into our communities. We need stronger legislation that forces political movements to disclose who is funding them, and how much is going anywhere.
I will try to keep you all posted with regard to deceitful and outrageous lies that Dogwood BC and Kai Nagata are using to deceive local residents. New entries will be added to the top of this page. Dogwood BC getting paid by American’s to block Canadian projects. We will also include documentation of their interference using American funds to interfere with the legal construction of pipelines.
2018 – Dogwood BC uses taxpayer dollars to fight a taxpayer owned pipeline.
2008-2026 – Below is a letter that borders extortion against Petronas, and it shows that the Eco-radicals are only supporting our First Nations, however we now know it was the other way around where they got the chiefs to sign and opposed the PNW LNG. In another online post a member of the Skeenawild Conservation Trust bragged about how they supplied all the protesters with boats.
“It is has been nearly four months since the occupation began. In the beginning, interactions between occupiers and the PNW LNG-hired surveyors were relatively peaceful, consisting of escorting surveyors off Flora Bank and brief boat-to-boat interactions. However, tempers have flared over the last month. Occupiers yell across the water, demanding that workers get lost, while survey boats resort to constant video surveillance. One worker held up a grappling hook while the boats circled one another during a late-night confrontation. Boats have made physical contact. Boatloads of surveyors pass the island with their hands covering their faces while a designated videographer rolls to catch any angry words cast by the occupiers. The RCMP boat has been out patrolling the area regularly.”
The Dogwood Initiative is a non-profit organization that campaigns against coal and also plays a lead role in the anti-pipeline, Tar Sands Campaign. Created by the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, The Tides Foundation and other U.S. foundations, The Tar Sands Campaign aims to sabotage the Canadian oil industry by undermining investor confidence and “land-locking” oil sands crude within North America so that it cannot reach overseas markets where it could fetch a higher price per barrel. U.S. foundations that support this campaign have paid Dogwood at least $2.7 million (2008 – 2016).
Dogwood claims to have helped elect seven mayors during the 2014 municipal elections in B.C. Dogwood also claims to have helped to defeat eight Conservative incumbents in the 2015 federal election. In B.C.’s 2017 provincial election, Dogwood helped to make “corporate cash” a central issue and got voters to the polls in key ridings, especially in Vancouver. It follows that one of the many factors in election outcomes in Canada is a U.S.-funded campaign to keep Canada over a barrel.
For 2016/2017, Dogwood’s total revenue was $1.6 million, up four-fold since 2010. According to the analysis presented here, funding from U.S. foundations accounted for roughly 15% of Dogwood’s total revenue for 2016. With 260,000 supporters, most of whom are Canadian, Dogwood has came to the point that with or without U.S. funding, Dogwood can influence elections at all levels of government.

Dogwood runs get-the-vote-out campaigns in municipal, provincial and federal elections in order to elect candidates and political parties who oppose pipelines and more broadly, to defeat any politician or political party who supports the Canadian oil & gas industry.
Dogwood claims to have helped elect seven mayors during the 2014 municipal elections in B.C. Dogwood also claims to have helped to defeat eight Conservative incumbents in the 2015 federal election.

The photo below showing our (now) NDP MP Taylor Bachrach was collaborating with Dogwood’s Will Horter into manipulation First Nations secretly into backing the ban on tankers, clearly this was never the brainchild of the then NDP MP Nathan Cullen, but a deep underground manipulation carefully orchestrated to make it appear as if First Nations originated the idea and they were just supporting First Nations ideals. Funny how confessions on Facebook come to light when people cannot resist bragging about their accomplishments.
This is the kind of smut national scandals are made of with both NDP MP Nathan Cullen and Taylor Bachrach in it up to their necks.
In 2015 whan Wiil Horter left the position of Executive Director, he was quoted a saying, “We succeeded because we slowly found our tribe. First, some incredibly tenacious, creative and largely unheralded staff like Matt Takach, Celine Trojand and Maggie Gilbert. Later we were joined by great volunteer organizers like Terry Dance Bennink, Montana Burgess, Dan Mesec, Merle Kindred, Bryan Jacobs, Carol Crabtree, Jay Baker-French and literally hundreds more.”
The original two grifters that made thier way to the Bulkley Valley, since that date both Taylor Bachrach and Dan Mesec, remained an aliance with its roots deep in Dogwood before they both added SkeenaWild Conservation Trust to thier resumes, and later the local Skeena-Bulkley Valley NDP Riding Association. They seem to also now have deep ties with the The Kispiox Collaborative
2002 – Will Horter, Bruce Hill and none other than Taylor Bachrach meet with some Wet’suwet’en and Coastal First Nations a known environmentalist organization.
Jessica Clogg is West Coast Environmental Law‘s Executive Director and Senior Counsel, Executive Director of what is now Dogwood Initiative, the late Bruce Hill led the Headwaters Initiative Project, a project of Tides Foundation.
2021 – The Dogwood Initiative decided to add a new but already popular issue to their new platform. The “carbon battle”—referring to the global, political, and scientific effort to curb carbon dioxide emissions—began to take shape in the late 1980s, accelerating rapidly in the 1990s and 2000s. Beginning in 2001, Dogwood supported local campaigns against coal bed methane mining and later, the expansion of oil tankers, including the Northern Gateway and Trans Mountain projects.
1999 – This group formed their first official alliance, and became what was then known as the Dogwood Initiative, and requesting funding by way of donations, so they could afford to stay and protest as opposed to having to find a job to feed themselves.
1998 – The people involved with its founding were a group of radical protestors who wanted to stop the logging in 1998. They used a tactic often used by people with an agenda, they claimed to be doing so for a good cause, that they wanted to push for the redistribution of logging tenures to local communities and First Nations. They organized using labour leaders who simultaneously were also supporting the Glen Clark’s New Democratic Party (NDP)
