On days 4 and 5 of the eleven-day hearing of a Canadian nurse under investigation for allegedly transphobic off-duty activity, legal counsel for the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM) attempted to discredit all defense witnesses on the basis of “transphobia,” the definition of which is at the heart of this case.
The legal counsel for Amy Hamm, a nurse in British Columbia who is facing the possible loss of her nursing license after complaints were made about her social media activity, intends to call Drs. Kathleen Stock, Linda Blade, Miriam Grossman, and single-sex prison advocate Heather Mason to testify as experts before the committee, but Barbara Findlay, counsel for the BCCNM spent several hours trying to call into question their credentials.
