Northern Confluence
Bluntly put, one person does not an organization make, its a website not an organization.
To call Northern Confluence an organization is more than just a stretch, its an organization of one, Nikki Skuce is the self declared director of Northern Confluence but to her credit she is a talented manipulator and us such gets paid by the Tides Foundation though large grants, large enough not to have to ever get a real job, so she has no need for protecting real jobs either. Tides Canada now called MakeWay even has a page called Northern Confluence – Makeway
This Northern Confluence has never publicly acknowledged that it has a membership, that it has a board of directors, its just one person and a website that is funded by Americans who want to shut down their competition in Canada. As always there are a few unscrupulous Canadians who love the money enough to do the job or organizing and coming up with schemes to shut Canada down.
Here is a must read article from BC-North on Nikki Skuce – False Representation of the North in this article worth reading on how a team of one can look like a large organization.
Would it then be a surprise that she is also working hand in hand with all the other organizations trying to kill every industrial job in the Northwest? She also claims to work in partnership in the region directly with Indigenous communities, governments, hereditary chiefs and Indigenous Guardian programs. However on a deeper examination she works only with those who oppose industry or industrial development, walk with me or I walk over you seems to be the motive.
