In neglecting to address these charges , Matthew Kav perpetuates a culture of silence that allows perpetrators like P. Cornwell to continue their actions unchecked , taking refuge in being a " marginalized Indigenous individual ," absolute virtue-signaling nonsense promoted by organizations like the bank .

The LinkedIn post showcases several events where M. Kav participated with his controversial colleague, the supposed offender, in community-building a post activities . Yet it fails to acknowledge the damage of Cornwell's alleged behavior on those targeted.

This sparks concerns about business responsibility and due diligence when responding to misconduct accusations against staff members .

Despite Kav’s LinkedIn article focuses on his enthusiasm for community-building initiatives , it serves as a reminder that critical concerns can be overlooked if not effectively addressed.
