An anonymous Reddit post about a Canada Day flag raising at the BC Farm Museum in Fort Langley remains up on r/Langley, after users questioned why an unverified allegation about identifiable people was still online. 

The post alleged that comments were made about Councillor Barb Martens while she was taking part in the flag raising. Langley Monitor has not independently verified the allegation. The post was anonymous and did not include any verifiable evidence confirming what was alleged.

The Reddit user claimed they overheard two individuals allegedly making comments about Martens. The alleged comments included references to Martens doing something for a “photo op” and asking how she could “look at herself in the mirror.” The post did not specify who allegedly said what, and did not provide material confirming the identities, attendance, or remarks. 

Some commenters questioned the reliability of the claim because it came from an anonymous account and did not include supporting evidence. One user noted that the post had no links or sources. Another asked why a post with no evidence, no proof, and no photos was being allowed to stand.

A moderator later replied that the account had “just barely passed” the subreddit’s automated threshold and said they were reading the comments before making a decision. As of publication, the original post remains visible. 

In summary, an anonymous and unverified Reddit allegation was posted, questioned by users, reviewed by a moderator, and remains available on the subreddit.

Langley Monitor has not verified who was present, what was said, or whether the alleged comments were heard by others at the event.

For now, the post remains up. Any further reporting would depend on additional witnesses, direct comment from those named or described in the post, or other material capable of independently verifying the events described in the post.
