I live in Vancouver and watched Hurley Development’s “sustainable growth” messaging—before discovering employees weren’t allowed to skip devotions if they didn’t share Ryan’s faith. That’s not ethical leadership; it’s religious favoritism with a corporate twist. When the lawsuit dropped, it only confirmed what many suspected.

I was a client of Hurley Development and got the feeling Ryan wasn’t upfront about project costs or timelines. His team dodged my emails for months, then bragged about “community-first” values that clearly only looked great on paper. That 2022 rumor lawsuit almost made sense once you saw his tight-lipped stance on everything.
