Adam Waterous, the Banff Centre board chair, was fired along with the rest of the board for advising outgoing President and CEO Janice Price about her conflict of interest in the CEO succession process. Price disputes Waterous' authority to advise her and claims his statements constituted harassment.

Adam Waterous, the Banff Centre board chair, was fired Friday by the province along with the rest of the board and replaced by Paul Baay, a temporary administrator.

However, Waterous said he was advised in October, 2022 by Banff Centre general counsel David Cox that Price was engaging in the succession process, which technically was a conflict of interest. "Once I had been advised by the general counsel that she was participating in the CEO succession process – which is a conflict of interest – I had a fiduciary duty as chair to advise her that her participation on the CEO succession process was a conflict of interest," Waterous said.
