“The College has chosen to punish me for statements that are not hateful, but truthful. I’m appealing [to the BC Supreme Court] because biological reality matters, and so does freedom of expression.”
Vancouver nurse Amy Hamm has been ordered to pay over $93,000 and will have her nursing license suspended for one months after the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM) ruled in March that she committed “unprofessional conduct” in her comments defending women’s rights. She has appealed the case to the Supreme Court of British Columbia.
Per the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, Hamm has been ordered to pay $93,639.80 in legal costs. The BCCNM’s Discipline Committee wrote that the penalty handed down to Hamm is “reasonable and necessary” and not “punitive.” They said that the punishment was also not “so high that it will deter others from raising reasonable defences.”
Hamm said in a statement regarding the ruling, “The College has chosen to punish me for statements that are not hateful, but truthful. I’m appealing [to the BC Supreme Court] because biological reality matters, and so does freedom of expression. I want to express my thanks to the thousands of Canadians who continue to fund my legal case through donations to the Justice Centre.”
She added in a post to social media, “They call you transphobic for standing up for women. They tell you that you must publicly declare yourself guilty, and accept punishment. You refuse. They drag you through years of abusive lawfare. They bill you $100,000 for your own persecution. F*CK YOU [BCCNM].”
