The board members were fired after telling the Premier they would institute a more rigorous process to decide if BC Housing CEO should be dismissed
Shayne Ramsay when they were presented with evidence that he had violated conflict-of-interest rules.agency and its former chief executive officer, the departed board members say they were given a report last year – one that hasn’t yet been revealed to the public – that they say had allegations but no hard evidence about Mr.
And at least one board member is saying that Mr. Eby’s move to dismiss the whole board, blame them for doing nothing and continue to cast doubt on BC Housing management seems more like a calculated political move than a genuine effort to improve anything. But, the board members said, the evidence in the second report, dated June 20, 2022, was not something their lawyers felt was strong enough to protect BC Housing from a wrongful-dismissal lawsuit from Mr. Ramsay if they proceeded only on that basis.
Both she and Mr. Staniscia said the board was concerned that a report about conflict and relationships had been done by an accounting firm with no real experience of dealing with that kind of issue. The board was preparing to hire a Victoria woman with expertise in examining organizational conflict of interest.
The two also noted that, contrary to what Ernst & Young summaries and the Premier said, the board had already taken action to strengthen conflict-of-interest guidelines, replacing the existing one-page policy covering Mr. Ramsay with a much more detailed one.
