According to a report from CBC News, anonymous staffers at Rideau Hall alleged that Payette had created a toxic atmosphere and yelled at employees, sometimes reducing them to tears and prompting them to quit.
"Every Canadian has the right to a safe, secure workspace, free from harassment and that is extremely important," he said. "That's why we moved forward on June 22 with announcements on strengthening the oversight in federally regulated agencies and environments, including the public service." In that statement, Rideau Hall said it "deeply regrets this reporting", which is in "stark contrast to the reality" of working at Payette’s offices. The statement also notes that it has not received any formal complaints.
Payette took over as Governor General with a five-year term beginning in October 2017, but her tenure at the post has been marred by conflicts and complaints.showed employees had already expressed concerns about their work environment. It shows 71 per cent of respondents “experienced harassment by someone in authority over them,” while 55 per cent cited aggressive behaviour in the workforce and 67 per cent said they'd been subjected to offensive remarks.
When it comes to an investigation into the matter, it remains unclear whether Trudeau will intervene.
It seems Singh wants the limelight quite often.
She has always looked and acted like an uppity elitist. Was never fit for the job
She’s not fit for the task.
Must be a Democrat. 🙄
How do we call for investigation into the misconduct of Singh?
theJagmeetSingh is an inept leader and has no credibility. The NDP has lost so much under him and the erosion is continuing.
Sad, the NDP has sunk so low. Wheres the grown up leadership here?!
This woman needs to be held accountable. If these allegations are true, she needs to be removed from the post. I doubt she’s representing the Queen well. BTW: in this time of change perhaps a review needs to happen about eliminating this position altogether.
“Which one is Singh?”
There have been no formal complaints filed. Why is this headline news? Mainstream media wanting to help Trudeau deflect attention from his corruption. Wake up people.
Resign do our country a favour I worked with people like you in forces from Quebec.
Would Singh go after G.G. so hard if she were a man ?
Of course he did
Singh the hero of the people ....BS Opportunistic bandwagon jumper & full time Democracy Killer
This is a diversion by the Liberal operatives to distract from the Trudeau/WE theft.
Singh has pretty much destroyed the NDP, so no credibility there.
After all it's not rocket science...
Singh saying anything about JT is the pot calling the kettle black.
Why doesn't he use his last name of Dhaliwal? Should be CTB News for the Canadian Television Brainwashing News
This is not the first time these accusations have been made. They absolutely s/be investigated. She seems to be very condescending to her staff, and has a superiority attitude. Just for the record, tell me again WHY do we need the expense of having a Gov General? Unnecessary $$$!
Picking a GG that will sit down, shut up and go through the motions while collecting a paycheque seems to be a difficult thing for PM's to choose. Johnston might've been the best one in 20 years. The rest were entitled and arrogant.
A Space Cadet calls for an investigation into an Astronaut's conduct. Both need to go.
That guy did something right a change. For the GG, time for some random karma.
