Sex-based rights defender says women 'depending on' BC Conservatives

NANAIMO: Sex-based rights defender Amy Hamm called on the BC Conservatives to continue fighting back against David Eby and the NDP.

She told delegates and MLAs at the party's annual general meeting that women across the province are "depending on" the party to do so.

"There's so much work that needs to be done in BC to protect women and, by extension, children from gender ideology," Hamm said after relaying a number of stories about women facing the consequences of far-left gender ideology, "and there's so much work to make BC a place where citizens are not afraid to express themselves freely as is their Charter-protected right."

She told them that "your mothers, sisters, daughters, they do not have the right to sex-segregated spaces in BC," and "battered, abused, and raped women — unless they do not go to Vancouver Rape Relief — have no other spaces in the province where they can seek help and not expect a male to be residing alongside them."

"Don't forget that you are the party for BC women," she urged those in attendance. "There's no other party that has so much as the courage to stand up and define what a woman is. BC women are depending on all of you, whether they know it or not and whether they accept it or not."

Hamm suggested Eby and the NDP are "well aware" of all the horror stories shared by BC women, but "they don't care."

"Eby doesn't care about it, and in fact he may be proud of these stories because they fit into his delusions about BC being a woke, DEI utopia," she added. "He's been forced to face the music over some of his failed drug policies, but Eby has yet to be called to account for his disgraceful refusal to even acknowledge the erosion of women's sex based rights in BC and in Canada."

Hamm concluded by saying she was "hopeful about BC because of this political movement and the leadership that so many of you in this room have displayed."

"Conservatives here all hold immense power to be agents of power," she said. "I can't wait to see what all of you have in store for BC."
