RUBADEAU EXPOSED
19
Ron Rubadeau needs to resign as the head of a School District that  made false entries on an ROE, set up a fraudulent layoff, forced Fisher to work an oversize area, cheated him out of earned money & health benefits, wrongfully dismissed him, slandered and defamed him.
He finally resigned April 2006
This is nothing but malicious slander
& defamation of Fisher by Rubadeau
Kelowna October 15, 2002 CKOV 630 Radio talk show Ron Rubadeau the Superintendent of School District 23 was on the radio claiming that allegation made on these web pages
against SD #23 had not been sustained.
Rubadeau is either disingenuous, in denial or dishonest.

            You be the judge, read all the substantiated proof                                     to backup the allegations against SD23.

(Takes a few moments but worth the wait)
Below is a letter Fisher sent to Rubadeau. Fisher asked to meet with Rubadeau. Rubadeau did not reply. Thereafter a SD23 lawyer did threaten Fisher.


Rubadeau fits into this category as his mistreatment of Custodian Fisher
serves up Rubadeau to be a hypocrite without ethics & morals ...

.. thus a poor example to the very students that he is given
the responsibility to teach ethics and morals.

Very sad for our community that we have such a Superintendent of Schools.
Superintendent Rubadeau continues to cover up the sustained misconduct and incompetence of administrators.
His mishandling of this matter further erodes
morals and ethics in our community

A majority of parents do not trust Rubadeau and want him replaced.
This is how the coward Rubadeau deals with the matter...
he sicks his high priced lawyer on Fisher
Rubadeau, Akehurst, Lownsbrough, Buckley & Lalonde conspired
to defraud Fisher of money & regular employee status that
included employee rights & health benefits.
In his letter below, Superintendent  Rubadeau, mounts a smear campaign
against Fisher while misleading teachers by announcing that Fisher had
the potential to escalate his actions to become a safety concern.
When asked for proof of Rubadeau's knowledge, SD #23 said that it had none!

Rubadeau inflamed the situation and caused the teachers needless stress
and during a supposed cash shortage period, invites them to take paid leave!

At the same time Rubadeau was needlessly stressing and scaring teachers, SD #23
repeatedly asked Fisher to come to it's offices, proving that he was no risk at all !
Rubadeau orchestrated SD #23 conduct towards Custodian Fisher that was harsh, vindictive, malicious & reprehensible & a substantial departure from the conduct & practices reasonably expected from School District #23 administration.
Ex Superintendent Rubadeau brought into Kelowna an expert on morals & ethics ...
                     Mr. Rushworth Kidder
                                 founder of the... Institute for Global Ethics
Expert Rushworth Kidder states,
"Ethics is no longer an option.
It is the core of our survival.
Possibly the most dangerous
thing in the world is a smart
person without ethics."

Kidder went on to say that, "the barriers to moral courage, are cynicism, apathy & hypocrisy....Hypocrisy is the worst...there's a bland acceptance of the need for ethics on the surface but underneath is a resistance to it."
Jim Taylor's Feb 9/03 column in the Kelowna Daily Courier newspaper,
"Whistleblower protection long overdue in Canada provides insight into the all too often ramifications of ethics & morals & the courage to use it. It's a shattering experience for whistleblowers to discover that organizations operate on the basis of power, not morality; that people in authority routinely lie & those that work under them routinely cover up."

Ex Superintendent Rubadeau
Rubadeau has promised to retire in 2006. He retired April 2006
Superintendent of SD #23,
Ron Rubadeau, finally announced
that he will retire in 2006.

Hopefully Rubadeau's replacement
will possess the morals & ethics
needed to rectify the injustice
SD #23 has caused Ken Fisher
or
SD #23 will continue to fail in it's job to
set an example of honesty for students
In the article, Rubadeau is correct about "Moral courage lacking in today's society" & it begins with his lack of morals & ethics in defrauding Custodian Fisher.
Rubadeau has his very own mini Enron-Walkerton type scandal in School District #23
Click on Rubadeau's newspaper columns that shows he manipulates matters & is out of step with the community.
"The Superintendent of Central Okanagan schools says a lack of ethics has fueled news stories like Enron and the Walkerton disaster."
"The board must "create citizens with moral courage who become active members of a community of learners" so the same scandals aren't repeated, he said."
"To instill in students a greater sense of honesty, compassion, responsibility, fairness and respect, Rubadeau wants to incorporate what he calls
"moral courage" in the curriculum"
Students read & realize that Rubadeau & Trustees lack morals & ethics themselves
..they're just a mob of hypocrites
..they didn't practice what they preach regarding the dismissal of Custodian Fisher
Rubadeau did not reply, he only got his lawyer after Fisher.

In fact the RCMP have opened a file to investigate SD #23 for fraud
SD 23 was “malicious, high-handed, outrageous, reckless, wanton, entirely without
care, intentional, deliberate, callous, disgraceful, willful, exploitative, and in disregard
of Custodian Fisher's rights and indifferent to the consequences.”

These examples illustrate Ron Rubadeau's serious core character flaws..
his inability to present things honestly, accurately, fairly..without manipulation.
He mishandled the dismissal of Custodian Fisher in the same flawed manner then further abuses Fisher by claiming Fisher's allegations have not been sustained.
Sad that SD23 has a Superintendent who lacks ethics & morals. ...Ken Fisher

Brian Vallee's book "The War On Women" contains a quote..that contradicts Rubadeau..He (Vallee the author) has no patience for those groups or individuals who maintain that men are as much victims of domestic violence as women".

Kelowna's deaf community accuses Rubadeau
of manipulation & poor judgement
A pile of crap that Rubadeau dumped in their laps
We're going to spread this around Canada about this School Board
"Insulting".. the Teacher's Association called Rubadeau's report
Ron Rubadeau repeatedly misleads & manipulates facts
...a serious core character flaw.
Sadly after retiring as SD#23's superintendent in 2006 Rubadeau gets hired as a consultant by the province.
"It's an easy tactic by Rubadeau to manipulate numbers to justify closure of community schools"
Can it be considered "Double Dipping"
How can any work that Rubadeau performs for the province be trusted?
"This guy is right out to lunch & right out of touch with reality."
**********
"Misleads...Manipulates facts..has a Bad attitude"..
"Serious Core Character Flaws"
conspired to discredit
Custodian Fisher.
Rubadeau headed up plans to close area schools. One parent wrote ..the public
viewed the whole exercise as little more than public relations & window dressing.
So much for serious consideration of alternative views
