The City of Vancouver and the VPD are being sued by the police department’s former director of public affairs over claims of harassment. Sharmini Dee, who resigned from her post in June, is suing the city, the force and high-profile spokesperson Sgt. Steve Addison saying she was subjected to gender and racial discrimination, harassment and bullying. The provincial government is also being sued for negligence and wrongful dismissal….even though she quit. A statement of defence has not yet been filed.
