What is the appropriate notice period for a former chief executive officer of a community group?

A similar result was reached in the decision of Wright v. Chilliwack Community Services, 2000 BCSC 972, but in somewhat distinguishable circumstances, that is, as an employee in the capacity of chief executive officer, had been three and one-half years on the job, was dismissed in very public circumstances and the employer had reneged on a commitment to fund job placement. In that case, a similar twelve month notice period was fixed for the purpose of damage assessment.
