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.

So many people who lose their jobs over this utter nonsense just go on to bigger and better things, with the added fire of rage.

Back in November 2023, I was punished with an unpaid suspension from
VCHhealthcare. This is the letter they sent to me. I was terrified at the time and desperate to save my job. But I knew I couldn’t be silenced, as that would be a far greater punishment.

I've had more trans patients than I can recall. Isn't it funny how I have been a punching bag for BCnursemidwife and VCHhealthcare
-- and yet not a single patient has EVER complained about me, or come forward because they recognize me, after all the publicity?

Has the tweet been removed? I get a 'retry' when I follow the link above and Nitter says 'not found'.

That's good news, good luck to Amy! Maybe she will become the Canadian MayaSmile

That fine is unbelievably vindictive. The investigation process has been vengeful and designed to break Amy and force her compliance. These panel members are the modern version of the Inquisition, feeling superior in their own holiness and happy to condemn heretics to torture and pain.

I can't believe I once deeply wanted to emigrate to Canada, if this is how they treat non-conformists then I'm so glad I didn't get the chance.

If you read the panel notice, there are ‘similar’ cases cited including a nurse illegally writing prescriptions who received a reprimand and $500 fine and a lawyer who threatened a SW with shooting her received a two week ban and $8000 in costs. Both actions obviously deemed to be less ‘wrong’ than Amy’s concerns for women’s rights.

Plus, the nursing college’s expert witnesses do a nice line in offering their services. Dr Greta Bauer was paid $66,000 for her one report. There were two more expert reports with these three reports being one reason Amy’s costs were so astronomical.

This is Greta being interviewed: This has allowed me to see the direct impact of my work on, for example, funding for gender-affirming surgeries, explicit human rights protections for gender identity and expression, changes in data collection through Statistics Canada, and requirements for physicians to provide effective referrals where physician beliefs prevent provision of care.

Transgenderism is firmly firmly rooted in the medical world in North America.

What’s interesting is that friends in the US and in Canada both claimed there was nothing about GI in their countries ie cases of young people having surgery or TW in women’s spaces just don’t get mentioned in liberal media (they wouldn’t be listening to conservative news).

It is incredible to me, still, how the idea that people can be ‘born in the wrong body’ and that having life altering surgery with side effects of infertility is just so acceptable to those in the healthcare field.

The costs are so vindictive. If you knew someone was appealing to a higher court would you not want to show that you had been completely fair and that you could point to other cases where similar costs had been incured. It gives the veneer of wanting to make sure other women don't take similar cases or step out of line.

I hope Amy is successful in her appeal but Canada is so captured.

This is awful and just shows now badly captured Canada is. They have some particularly unpleasant but powerful men who demand everyone pretend they are women while hating us intensely. The authorities seem to have an issue with basic facts.

I hope thousands of sane and horrified Canadians are still contributing to her crowd funder mentioned in the article above.

So captured that v few people in Canada are hearing these stories. They don’t make mainstream media. It’s like a blanket of silence on all things trans has descended.
