Dogwood BC (Tides Funded) intends to manipulate upcoming Municipal Elections

Dogwood BC is already well known for election interference in the past as noted below, let me quote.

• • • Recruiting dual members: Dogwood allegedly encouraged its supporters, including existing Green Party members, to join the BC NDP specifically to vote in the leadership election, with the intention of rejoining their original parties later. BC NDP rules prohibited members of other political parties from joining, and the BC Green Party also prohibited dual memberships.
    • Paying for memberships: There were also allegations that an Appadurai supporter offered to pay the $10 membership fee for new members, which is a violation of the BC Election Act.
    • Independence of Dogwood/Appadurai campaign: The BC NDP’s election CEO investigated the connections between Dogwood and the Appadurai campaign, concluding that their claims of independence from each other were contradicted by the evidence. 

• • • Anjali Appadurai disqualified: The BC NDP’s election CEO concluded that the integrity of the membership list was “seriously undermined” by the solicitation of fraudulent memberships by Dogwood and others, and disqualified Anjali Appadurai from the leadership race in October 2022. This made David Eby the sole candidate, and he became the premier.
    • Elections BC Review: Elections BC, the province’s independent election watchdog, also reviewed Dogwood’s activities to ensure that, as a third party, it did not make an indirect political contribution to a leadership contestant.
    • Foreign Funding Concerns: Dogwood has also previously faced scrutiny for receiving a portion of its funding from U.S.-based foundations, which has been a point of discussion in Canadian political circles regarding foreign influence in Canadian elections. 

 

 

There are still some very serious questions to be asked in connection with Taylor Bachrach and his elections both municipal and federal in regards to the roles Dogwood BC played in his election campaigns.

 

 

Now Dogwood BC has its eyes set on controlling who wins municipal elections in BC

I will post screenshots as evidence below, but its clear they are willing to fund, but I will copy paste verbatim the first part of the job offer.

Dogwood brings people together to transform our democracy, uphold Indigenous rights and defend the climate, land and water that sustain life in B.C. With our allies, we work to break free from fossil fuels, supercharge decarbonization, and counter corporate influence on our democracy and rising right-wing narratives. All of this work takes place on unceded, stolen Indigenous territories amidst ongoing colonial violence, racial injustices and profound wealth inequalities. Thus, Dogwood will contribute, always, to the generations-long project of repairing the injustices of colonialism and dismantling systems of oppression. 

In a nutshell when Dogwood BC says quote “rising right-wing narratives” They in fact are going to support “left wing” meaning NDP and Green Party candidates. 

 

The candidate’s job is to coordinate with their choices of who should run our town and city councils, as is stark contrast with voters deciding that choice. Dogwood BC Intends to use American funding, to manipulate our munic0ple elects,
