Integrity Commissioner dismisses Code of Conduct complaints against councillor over Facebook post criticizing drag storytime.
Two complaints were filed alleging that a municipal councillor contravened the Council Code of Conduct by posting a Facebook comment critical of a drag storytime event at the local public library.
The Integrity Commissioner found that the councillor's comments, while expressing opposition to the event, were moderate, respectful, and made in a personal capacity without City-related implications.
The Commissioner also found that the councillor did not misuse the influence of his office, as he ultimately did not send a planned letter to the Library Board.
The complaints were dismissed.
