Is Canada Silencing Professionals? Nurse Amy Hamm Punished for Speaking Out
B.C. nurse Amy Hamm has been fined $93,639 and suspended for one month by the BC College of Nurses and Midwives over her views on sex and gender. Part of the case stems from a billboard she co-sponsored that read: “I ❤️ J.K. Rowling.”
Now she’s fighting back—and the policy consequences could affect every Canadian.
David Leis is joined live by Amy Hamm, her lawyer Lisa Bildy, and Marco Navarro-Genie, VP of Research at Frontier Centre, to examine how regulatory policies are being used to discipline speech outside the workplace, what this means for professional freedom, and whether current policies protect Canadians’ rights—or quietly erode them.
Is this really about patient safety, or about enforcing ideology through policy?
