It’s shocking to see a governor general resign amidst revelations about a toxic work environment at her office.
For taxpayers, it’s even more shocking to know we’ll have to keep paying her expenses.
Given the kind of behaviour allegedly outlined in the government’s report, Julie Payette had no real choice but to resign as governor general. Toxic management would never be tolerated in any other workplace. It’s certainly unacceptable for the Queen’s representative in Canada.
