Amy Hamm - Canadian Nurse being disciplined for being GC

I've not seen a thread on Amy on MN and the search didn't show up anything. She seems to be being put through the wringer by tras and by her nursing college.

I thought if she saw this thread it might be cheering Flowers, she's on twitter. I found her thanks to Bette.

Yes, because JS and KB's reports will now stand as evidence.

Exactly and with no challenge.

No cross examination again from the College of Coach Blade.
This does seem to be quite a risky strategy.

It is the first time I have listened to her, and she is pretty impressive.

She's amazing.

No questions for Linda Blade.

So, maybe after Dr Cantor, who they couldn't shake, they decided not to challenge the experts because it just doesn't work.

Ffs not good.

Didn't realise how qualified Linda Blade is!

Thank you from me too @Mmmnotsure

I wish they'd crossed Doc Stock. If only because she speaks so well and so clearly.

I think Kathleen Stock spoke far too much sense and so wouldn’t surprise me if the panel exclude all of her evidence.

Tallisker · 08/11/2023 11:33

Thanks from me too, @Mmmnotsure - stellar typing!

Ereshkigalangcleg · 08/11/2023 11:29

Yes, another thanks here. Was looking forward to hearing the panel and opposing lawyers cross examine Kathleen Stock so was a bit disappointed about that! I guess they knew it wouldn't help them.

@Mmmnotsure - thank you so much for your commentary, it has helped me tremendously. 💐

Thank you. I'm very glad it was useful.

Tallisker · 08/11/2023 09:57

So they do have some self awareness then

I don't understand how it can benefit the college not to cross-examine KS. Unless they realised that she would wipe the floor with them and her responses would just make them look silly.

Bingo

but if it's about her use of her professional title maybe all the expert testimony only muddies the waters so to speak.
and regardless of the societal value to opening up the discussion maybe they plan to keep it just to the rn use vs the views she holds.

They definitely are not keeping it to just the RN use, yesterday and this morning BF was questioning Amy and she was desperately trying to get Amy to say that her views in general were transphobic and that she thought Trans people should not have human rights. BF barely touched on the aspects related to Amy identifying herself as a nurse.

I wonder if they'll pull the same tactic with Coach Blade tomorrow. They must really be running scared if they don't even attempt to challenge Amy's experts.

Mmmnotsure · 07/11/2023 22:38

@Signalbox Yes, I thought too that they wouldn't be able to stand up to her arguments, and didn't want to give her any more airtime.

Excellent capture of the testimony by yourself - you must be a really fast typist.

Thank you.

Back in the day typing jobs were the only way to earn some money during university vacations. So I got a book on touch typing out of the library...

Oh. The college doesn't have any qs for KS. Neither does the panel.

Mmmnotsure · 07/11/2023 22:33

That seems to be a bit of surprise for everyone. Chair saying we now have two hours to twiddle our thumbs. Anything we can put in to pass the time?

Nope.

Adjourning then.

Signalbox · 07/11/2023 22:32

MS looked so smug when he announced that.

CyberCritical · 07/11/2023 22:32

College has no questions for Dr Stock.
