Falcon tweeted on Sunday: “I am deeply troubled by the allegations made by Diamond Isinger about members of my team. I’ve asked my campaign co-chair, Puneet Sandhar, LL.B to identify a third-party to investigate and bring this matter to a respectful and meaningful conclusion.”
Former Premier Christy Clark commented: “I’m so sorry this happened to you. By speaking out, you are helping to make change. I know many of us are utterly disgusted by what you describe but also heartened by your decision to make it public. We know it could just as easily have been any of us. Thanks for your courage.”
