Dirty Money in B.C. – Still No Justice? (Part 5)

⚖️ Dirty Money in B.C. – Still No Justice? (Part 5)

By Tina Winterlik aka Zipolita

After four deep dives into the Cullen Commission's findings — from casinos to condos, cars to corruption — we arrive at the big question:

What’s actually changed?

The Cullen Commission made 101 recommendations. Some steps have been taken — like more transparency around real estate ownership and talk of a beneficial ownership registry. But here's the truth:

🚨 Still No Criminal Charges

Despite billions laundered, **no one has been held criminally accountable** as a result of the Cullen Commission. Not one major player has gone to jail. No casino execs. No real estate moguls. No government officials.

🏗️ Reforms Are Slow, Resistance Is Real

• Real estate and finance lobbies resist tighter rules
• Enforcement agencies are underfunded and understaffed
• The public has moved on — but we can’t afford to

📣 So What Can We Do?

• Demand accountability from elected officials
• Support investigative journalism and independent reporting
• Push for real financial crime enforcement and transparency
• Share the truth — don’t let this be forgotten

💭 Reflective Questions:

• How do we ensure the powerful are held to the same standard as the rest of us?
• What would justice look like for British Columbians harmed by dirty money?

This series ends here — but the fight for truth, transparency, and justice continues. Let’s shake the tree together. 🌲💥
