Statement from Mayor Leonard Krog regarding BC Human Rights Tribunal decision

STATEMENT - Distributed August 15, 2023 4:15 PM

After 22 months, we recently received the decision from the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal concerning the former Chief Financial Officer.

The decision is not what we expected. We are reviewing it in detail and will determine our next steps after consulting and obtaining advice.

We do not agree with the characterizations of staff. It is our view that individuals on staff who came forward to disclose information regarding serious matters did so in good faith with the best interests of Nanaimo's citizens in mind.

The City of Nanaimo is committed to providing a safe and inclusive workplace for all employees. We will not make any further comments at this time.
