"[The CBSA] is discriminatory and toxic for everyone ... but it does seem disproportionately discriminatory against women,"
"It seems to me that, internally, the powers that be - management - are spending a whole lot of effort trying to cover up things."
"Employees who have experienced harassment or discrimination do not always feel that they can go to management."
"We are working to build a culture where all employees do feel confident to speak up without that fear of reprisal."
The House of Commons public safety committee plans an inquiry into systemic discrimination and organizational culture at the Canada Border Services Agency. Complaints of a toxic work environment and stonewalling investigations have emerged from current and former employees. Female employees reported degrading comments and sexual behavior, often from superiors. Conservative MP Rhonda Kirkland expressed concerns about management's handling of complaints and the need for a psychologically safe workplace. CBSA leadership acknowledged the need for improvement and a roadmap to address these issues, while efforts are underway to support complainants.
