Dr. Francis Christian seeks unspecified damages after he was dismissed from leadership roles over his comments about COVID\u002D19.
in which Christian appeared last year, saying it questioned the severity and even the existence of the COVID-19 pandemic; he criticized the “many conspiracy theories and assertions cast at many incredible people.”Livingstone called the messaging from Christian “dangerous” and “absurd,” the statement of claim says.
In addition to punitive damages, Christian wants the SHA and the college to admit they violated his right to academic freedom, as well as his freedoms of conscience and of thought, belief, opinion and expression as guaranteed by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.Essentially, he feels he had a right, even a duty, to consider an alternative pandemic narrative, while the SHA and the college feel he was undermining the institutions and public health with his statements.
Christian, seen by some as a folk hero, delivered a speech at the centre’s George Jonas Freedom Award ceremony last year when “Canadians resisting unconstitutional lockdowns” took home the prize., Christian said, “A totalitarian darkness is closing in around us” with people feeling the “boot of a dystopian tyranny.”
