(Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms) — The Justice Centre announces that the hearing for Vancouver-area nurse Amy Hamm began on Wednesday at the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM).
An investigation was launched by the BCCNM in November, 2020, in response to public complaints about Hamm’s “gender critical” opinions and comments. This followed her involvement with an “I ♥ JK Rowling” billboard display in Vancouver, endorsing Rowling’s support for sex-based rights.
In Hamm’s case, the BCCNM Inquiry Committee referred the matter to a Disciplinary Panel. A hearing was originally set for spring of 2022, but was adjourned to this Wednesday.
The charge against Hamm reads: “Between approximately July 2018 and March 2021, you made discriminatory and derogatory statements regarding transgender people, while identifying yourself as a nurse or nurse educator. These statements were made across various online platforms, including but not limited to, podcasts, videos, published writings and social media.”
The hearing is being conducted by video conference, from September 21 to 23 and October 24 to 27, 2022.
