As an openly gay 🧑‍🚒 still waiting for my Human Rights case to be heard after experiencing discrimination and lack of support, this feels more like PR than allyship. Removing comments instead of addressing concerns says even more.

#pride without accountability is PR

[Edward Azadeh @edwardazadeh]

@opffa Pride parade means nothing without accountability & harassment free work environment

As an openly gay 🧑‍🚒 FF, I experienced harassment, bullying, homophobic name-calling, retaliation, and isolation while leadership and the union failed to protect me in Ontario.

🧡 Reconciliation means nothing without truth. @TPFFA @cityoftoronto Today we pause for Silence and Truth to prevail.
Injured workers and families still wait for apology, justice, and change.
Silence is not healing.

Accountability is essential, and without meaningful action, these problems will remain unresolved."

Matthew Pegg @cityoftoronto @TPFFA @TPFFAPres is may be Retired as Fire Chief, but the issues of Harassment and Bullying that occurred under his watch cannot be ignored. Leadership means Accountability, @ChiefPeggTFS @TFSDeputyCocco

It has been over 2 years City of Toronto and Fire @Toronto_Fire representatives including Union are refusing to share investigation and result of the investigation at bare minimum u w/ Injured worker, hindering Legal process & causing further anguish to injured worker & Family
