In this issue of Earth First! Journal Diana Wilson reveals information showing massive land giveaway on British Columbia’s mainland coast. In addition, Kieran Suckling, Dana Stolzman, and Cecelia Lanman contribute some thoughts on “Bad Money and Big Activism,” and Mike Howell calls for attention to the wolves of Yukon.      

The  problem is, most foundations didn’t get their money from Aunt Nellie; they got it from family dynasties founded on the oil, car, timber, computer, media industries, etc. Additionally, most foundations have their money invested in earth-destroying industries because they pay the highest returns.
