A B.C. nurse fired for gender-related comments and found to have committed professional misconduct has filed human rights complaints against her former employer and the nurses’ regulatory college, claiming discrimination based on her political beliefs.
Amy Hamm filed two complaints with the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal, one against the British Columbia College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM) and another against her former employer, Vancouver Coastal Health (VCH), according to a July 21 press release by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms, which provided lawyers to represent Hamm in both matters.
