First Nations chief received $55,000 from Tides Foundation
2014-01-20
Hat tip Instapundit yesterday.

Tides Foundations gives a Canadian tribal chief money. Chief then goes to rally to oppose extraction of oil from Alberta tar sands. Gift of money is buried deep, deep in foundation financial reports. Canadian and American press ignore. Progressives continue to chip away at energy independence.

As for the Chief, if he's indicted it doesn't matter to Tides. There's always another chief.

Tides will just learn to put more 'pro' between the 'quid' and the 'quo'.

#5  Been saying it for a while. George Soros is pure evil - sold out fellow Jews to the Nazis. Destabilized currencies and countries to their detriment and made money off it. Athiest collectivist that wants the world to be an ant colony (with him as the leader of course). He is getting old but remains patently evil. He needs to die already, he's lived and damaged the world quite long enough.

One of the very few people I would assault on sight, regardless of consequence to myself.

#4   Whose land is it? The tribes have a conflict of interest with the oil companies, a main source of revenue for them, and the preservation of the land + energy independence. They also contend they are not fully compensated from the energy companies operating on tribal lands (feds also claim reservation land but they are also considered sovereign nations with mineral rights) so they feel they are royally screwed. It's always open season for graft on the rez.

#3  Tides Foundation

And most likely through byzantine good old boy legislation both it and its leaders and board members (can we say real 1 percenters) derive directly or indirectly de facto tax free status.
