Discussion on Land Trespassing and Property Access on Denman Island
community · February 2021 · Denman Island
A community opinion piece discusses the history of land ownership on Denman Island, the impact of No Trespassing signs, and advocates for open access and community sharing of land while respecting privacy and nature.
This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
