Austria has been shaken by a legislative proposal that, if confirmed, would represent a true authoritarian shift: parents who refuse to allow their underage children to undergo genital modification surgeries (commonly known as “sex-change” procedures) could end up in prison. The measure has sparked a wave of outrage, with many seeing it as a direct attack on parental rights and plain common sense.







The BC College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM) determined in a March 13 ruling that Amy Hamm was guilty of “unprofessional conduct” and could now request the nurse pay $163,053 to reimburse the legal costs associated with the inquiry into her comments. The college is also looking at suspending Hamm’s licence for three months.
