been heard nor accepted as evidence in court. Three former students, whose experiences were not part of the Georgia Straight story, alleged that Furlong sexually, physically, and verbally abused them. In 2013, these three former students filed failed civil lawsuits against Furlong, the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Vancouver, the Roman Catholic Prince George Diocese, and the Catholic Independent Schools Diocese of Prince George. Based on changes in information from interviews by the RCMP by one of the accusers, a BC Supreme Court Judge erroneously concluded that the woman had not attended the school where she had accused Furlong of abuse. In fact, the woman had attended the school during Furlong's tenure according to documents presented at a later trial (Robinson v. Furlong). A second woman dropped her civil case after it was deemed unfounded. The third plaintiff, a man, was found to have already received compensation for a claim while attending a different school at the same period as his claim against Furlong. In fact, this man had attended Immaculata during Furlong's tenure. RCMP Questions have been raised about the relationship between Furlong and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) officers who investigated abuse allegations against him. Some of these senior officers had worked closely with Furlong on Olympic security, holding senior or oversight security positions for the 2010 games in Vancouver. These relationships were not revealed and these officers did not recuse themselves from the investigation. Canadian Human Rights Tribunal In a December 2016 complaint to the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal (CHRT), six Northern British Columbia First Nations members formally accused the federal government and the RCMP of racial and ethnic discrimination in their investigation of allegations that John Furlong abused them. The inquiry, scheduled for January 2022, was delayed indefinitely after Furlong requested a judicial review of the CHRT's decision to deny him standing to seek a stay or dismissal of the proceedings. In February 2022, the federal court sealed tribunal evidence to protect Furlong's “dignity and reputation.” By June 2022, three of the six complainants had died. In November 2022, an application for judicial review of a CHRT decision was dismissed in a partially anonymized federal court decision. University of British Columbia Fundraiser In January 2017, University of British Columbia (UBC) president Santa J. Ono apologized to Furlong for cancelling his keynote address at the February Canada Millennium Scholarship Foundation fundraising event for athletes. Ono announced that
