FFS (Female Free Speech) Friday honors women and girls who are speaking out about the harms that “gender identity” poses to women and girls as a sex class. FFS Friday posts are free and shareable. If you would like access to content that delves deeper into the movement to protect the sex-based rights of women and girls and to stop the abolition of sex, please consider a paid subscription.
Today’s FFS Friday celebrates Amy Hamm (@preta_6 on X), who has been an absolute warrior in fighting for the sex-based rights of women and girls in Canada. Amy is a registered nurse who has persevered through years of persecution by the Midwives Association of British Columbia. The complaints made against her included an “I love JK Rowling” billboard in Vancouver that she and a friend commissioned, as well as various posts she has made online. Two weeks ago, the MABC found her guilty of misconduct. Yesterday, she was fired by Vancouver Coastal Health, after thirteen years of employment. Amy has never received a single complaint related to her duties as a nurse. She is enduring all of this because she knows and is not afraid to say out loud that women exist as a sex class.

I stand proudly in defence of the truth, and I lament and denounce a profession that has been subverted by a quasi-religious, metaphysical belief system that infringes upon the rights of women and girls, and harms youth.
My conscience does not permit me to lie, or to lie down, in the face of gender ideology.
Punish me harder, if you must. The truth always wins in the end.
Amy has written extensively about her story. After the misconduct finding, she wrote in the National Post:
I have lost my case with the B.C. College of Nurses and Midwives (BCCNM). A three-member panel found me guilty of “unprofessional conduct” for sharing my views on sex and gender ideology, in a manner that they have ruled as, at times, “discriminatory and derogatory” towards transgender identified persons.
The case, funded generously by the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms since it began in late 2020, opened with an investigation sparked by public complaints about my involvement in advocating for women’s sex-based rights, and closed with more than 20 days of disciplinary hearings spread out over two years. I have never once had a patient complaint, and the entire case was based solely on my conduct outside of work. Nearly one year to the day after the hearing concluded, I received the guilty verdict on Thursday.
In its March 14 statement concerning the disciplinary action, MABC stated:
The college's Discipline Committee has issued its decision following a hearing into allegations that Ms. Hamm made public discriminatory statements directed towards transgender people while identifying as a nurse.
This is obviously absurd. Amy does not “identify as” a nurse; she is one. The only people who are “identifying as” anything are the people who refer to themselves as the opposite sex or as a member of a third sex that does not exist. This shows the extent to which Canadian institutions have been captured by the lies of “gender identity.” It would be comical if the consequences for women like Amy aren’t so dire.
Shortly thereafter, she announced that she is appealing the decision.
Yesterday, she announced that she has now been fired from her job because she knows that men are not women.
VCHhealthcare is Vancouver Coastal Health, where she worked for thirteen years. It states on its website:
Our vision of healthy lives in healthy communities inspires us and our values and pillars guide us. Collectively, our actions contribute to creating safe, healthy spaces for everyone and support quality patient outcomes, access to equitable care and a great place to work.
How can they possibly do that if they discriminate against healthcare professionals who understand the material reality of sex?
In her piece in the Post, Amy said:
I stand proudly in defence of the truth, and I lament and denounce a profession that has been subverted by a quasi-religious, metaphysical belief system that infringes upon the rights of women and girls, and harms youth.
My conscience does not permit me to lie, or to lie down, in the face of gender ideology.
Punish me harder, if you must. The truth always wins in the end.
Later yesterday, Amy posted, “Trans activists, @BCnursemidwife and @VCHhealthcare should all know that absolutely nothing they’ve done to me constitutes a “win” for any of them. You are steeped in shame. I have none. Best of luck to you all.”
I am proud to have known Amy online for several years, and to have served on an in-person panel with her earlier this month on International Women’s Day, at an event sponsored by the group Canadian Women’s Sex-Based Rights.
I know that Amy will never back down in the fight to protect the sex-based rights of women and girls. Amy, today’s FFS Friday is for you.
It doesn't help her right away, but gosh would she be a good hire for any of the clinics specializing in detransition that will emerge in coming years. Informed, compassionate, and an outstanding nurse.
We must support Amy Hamm is some organized, high-impact way, but how? Organize a protest in her city? I'd definitely try to go.
