Following comments from North Bay City Councillor describing Canadore as a toxic workplace, Canadore president George Burton filed an ethics complaint. The investigation, in 2024, found no issue with the toxic workplace statement.[4][5] Canadore had previously faced 2019 allegations from over 50 staff of being a toxic workplace.[6] A subsequent third-party investigation was conducted in 2020 which Canadore refused to release publicly.[7][8] Following Canadore's failure to release the report, and accounts of reprisal and psychological abuse, unions called for the suspension of Canadore administrators.[9]
