1/I interviewed 18 sources for my 2019 debunking of Vivian, 15 of them ENGOs. I asked most of them if Vivian had followed up with them to verify information, especially how the Tar Sands Campaign funding they received was actually used.

Here is Tides Canada's response: https://twitter.com/FairQuestions/status/1350576006889836545

2/ "Although in one email I found she asked [a] question about where the funding went, for the overwhelming majority, she would simply list a whole bunch of info she had collected, and then ask for us to reply and confirm it was correct."

3/Another quote:

"For the record, Tides Canada was never a member of the Tar Sands Campaign. In much of the Vivian Krause rhetoric, there is conflation between Tides Canada and Tides Foundation in the US. We believe this is intentional."

4/Another quote:

"Since 2005, approximately 1% of Tides Canada’s funding has gone towards pipeline and oil sands-related initiatives. This support went to Indigenous communities and environmental organizations as they address the impacts that such projects...

5/...would have on their communities and the environment, two things that are deeply connected. Tides Canada, along w/the scientific community and a rapidly growing population of Canadians, believe Canada must transition to a clean energy economy.

6/...We support activities that move us in that direction. Tides Canada receives funding from a wide range of partners including individuals, govts, foundations, charities, non-profits, and businesses. Our donors help us connect and empower a wide range of transformational...

7/...community-led initiatives that advance environmental, social, and economic justice. Like many other Canadian foundations and charities protecting the environment and building sustainable livelihoods, Tides Canada receives donations from Canadian and international donors –

8/...all of which are within the CRA guidelines. Between 2015-2018, Tides Canada received 43% of its total revenue from international contributions. Because important global issues like land, freshwater, oceans, and species conservation and climate change cross borders...

9/...international foundations often support work in other countries to further their mission. This is neither new nor surprising."

This is the charity Vivian, Jason Kenney, and industry leaders have been slandering for years.

They can't even get their facts straight.

10/To illustrate my point, my interview with Tides Canada CEO in which she confirms that neither Kenney nor the Allan inquiry contacted her org to confirm information before making wild public allegations.

Can you spot the pattern here?
