B.C. nurse who was disciplined for transgender comments files human rights complaints

VANCOUVER — The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms says a nurse who was sanctioned by the B.C. College of Nurses and Midwives has filed two human rights complaints with the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal.

A disciplinary panel with the college determined Amy Hamm committed unprofessional conduct for making “discriminatory and derogatory statements” about transgender people earlier this year.

Transgender doctor’s complaint that she felt ‘threatened’ by much smaller nurse in female changing room row was ‘plausible’, senior medic says

Tranny v woman

A transgender doctor complained that she felt threatened by a ‘much smaller’ nurse in the female-only changing rooms at Victoria Hospital in Kirkcaldy, Fife, a tribunal has heard.

A senior medic in the ongoing legal action between transgender medic Dr Beth Upton and nurse Sandie Peggie, said that it was ‘plausible’ that Dr Upton could have felt threatened.

Dr Elspeth Pitt, a consultant in emergency medicine at NHS Fife, told the tribunal that Dr Upton was ‘sobbing’ following a confrontation with Ms Peggie.

Justice or ideology? ‘Alberta court’s ‘gender’ ruling ignores evidence and common sense.’

Last November, the Alberta Medical Association (AMA) released a statement taking aim at the Smith government for its new legislation banning puberty blockers and hormone therapy for trans-identifying youth. The AMA stated, among other things: “There is no place for the government in the medical decisions being made by parents and their children in conjunction with physicians.”

In an ideal world, the AMA would be absolutely correct — just as in an ideal world there would be no hunger, poverty, discrimination or violence.

Canada: Stupid Judge Does Stupid Thing Because Trump

Judge halts deportation of non-binary American in landmark ruling after Trump’s gender edicts

A Federal Court justice has halted the deportation of a non-binary American in a ruling that criticized Ottawa’s Immigration Department for not properly considering the situation of LGBTQ Americans since U.S. President Donald Trump took office.

Angel Jenkel, a 24-year-old multimedia artist from Minnesota who is engaged to a Canadian, can now remain in Canada while their case is judicially reviewed, in a judgment that their lawyers hailed as precedent-setting.

American ‘Detransitioner’: Gender Transition Mutilates and Destroys Lives

Walt Heyer lived under a female identity that was never truly his for decades. His story—marked by childhood trauma, confusion, and surgical mutilation—now serves as a warning to those alarmed by the spread of gender ideology, especially among minors. In a recent conversation with europeanconservative.com, Heyer, a well-known critic of gender ideology, shared his testimony and denounced the medical, psychological, and societal consequences of what he describes not as a form of help, but as a lucrative industry.

The prevalence of real and fake women in Antifa terrorism

There’s something unusual and interesting about the perpetrators of the attack on the ICE detention center in Texas: Four of the ten attackers were women. Another two were “trans” women. The large number of real women in a violent military-style attack is eerily reminiscent of the infamous Baader-Meinhof gang, while the sexually confused men give the whole thing a modern “transgender” twist.

Jamie Sarkonak: Liberal-funded charity stops Alberta from protecting minors from gender ideology

Until further notice, transgender medical treatments for minors will continue in Alberta.

In December, Alberta amended its Health Professions Act to prohibit doctors from prescribing hormone therapy and puberty-suppressing drugs to minors in the course of treating gender-related psychological disorders. The law hadn’t come into force, however, and the government was planning to release an order allowing exceptions to the rule.

A Win for Reality at UPenn

The school has reinstated the records of female swimmers who lost their titles to trans-identified male swimmer Lia Thomas.

On Tuesday, the University of Pennsylvania reached an agreement with the Trump administration’s Department of Education regarding trans-identified male swimmer Lia Thomas’s participation on the women’s swim team. Following a federal investigation, the university has agreed to revise records set by Thomas and to restore titles and accolades to the female athletes he displaced. UPenn will also issue personal apologies to the affected swimmers, bar male athletes from competing in women’s sports, and adopt biology-based definitions of “male” and “female” under Title IX.

This correction was inevitable. Reality, in the end, reasserts itself. But the mainstream press hasn’t budged. Instead, they continue to misinform their readers, deploying headlines designed to obscure plain facts.

Transgender teenager’s German chess triumph prompts call for ban

A transgender teenager has caused an upset in German chess circles by winning an under-18 girls’ national tournament, prompting calls for tougher rules even in a sedentary sport that relies on brainpower.

Nora Heidemann’s victory to become German champion in the female category of the youth chess championship in Willingen this month was met with criticism from some players and from the head of the German commission for women’s chess, Nadja Jussupow.

Fry vs. Rowling

I guess I first became aware of Stephen Fry — the Cambridge-educated actor, author, and broadcaster who was knighted this year by King Charles — in the early 1990s, when he starred in a small, charming British film called Peter’s Friends, directed by Kenneth Branagh, and teamed up with Hugh Laurie in the very funny British series Jeeves and Wooster, based on the P.G. Wodehouse stories. I caught him as Oscar Wilde in Wilde (1997) — not bad — and, later, in supporting roles in major films from both sides of the pond.

Amy Hamm: The rabbit rescue that refused to be cancelled for alleged transphobia

It’s June: the western world’s Holy Month of Pride, and, as such, we must all be on our best behaviour so as not to offend the delicate sensibilities of gender activists — you know, the ones that occupy the latter half of the expanding LGBTQ2S+ acronym.

Unfortunately, the United Kingdom’s Carrot Cottage Rabbit Rescue somehow missed this memo. The registered charity drew the ire of Irish comedian and transgender rights activist Aidan Comerford this week, following an online attack by anonymous activists whose work caught Comerford’s attention. Comerford, whose X bio notes that he “generally tweets about what transphobia looks like,” astutely observed that the charity was committing the cardinal sin of following unapproved social media accounts on X.

Stephen Fry could do with a lesson in ‘radicalisation’

Stephen Fry has accused J.K. Rowling of being ‘inflammatory and contemptuous’, ‘mocking’ and adding to ‘a terribly distressing time for trans people’. Fry, who narrated the Harry Potter audiobooks, has damned their author for saying ‘cruel’ and ‘wrong’ things and for failing to ‘disavow some of the more revolting and truly horrible, destructive – violently destructive – things that people say’. He suspects that she’s been ‘radicalised by Terfs’, charged her with kicking up ‘a hornet’s nest of transphobia which has been entirely destructive’, and dismissed her as ‘a lost cause’.

Might I interrupt this lengthy damnatio memoriae to point out that Fry is supposed to be Rowling’s friend and to venture that, if she deserves to be rebuked for anything, it’s her godawful taste in friends. Fry, Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson. The woman is like flypaper for airheads, dilettantes, and abject ingrates.
