The Province of B.C. and Ron Mattson today announced that they have settled Mr. Mattson’s claims in B.C. Supreme Court arising from the termination of Mr. Mattson’s employment in September 2012.

At the time, Mr. Mattson had been employed for 28 years and held senior positions in the ministry.

The government advises that its decision to terminate Mr. Mattson was a regrettable mistake. In announcing the settlement, the government thanks Mr. Mattson for his long years of service as a loyal and dedicated public servant. The government regrets any hardship and possible loss of reputation which Mr. Mattson endured.

Mr. Mattson is currently an elected official for the Town of View Royal and has been for 19 of the last 24 years. The government hopes the settlement removes any potential cloud over his reputation which otherwise might have existed.

Mr. Mattson is grateful that his name has been cleared and appreciates the government’s expression of regret. Mr. Mattson says he is relieved he can now put this ordeal behind him and get on with his life and serving the good people of View Royal. The government wishes Mr. Mattson the best in his future endeavours.
