Can an EDI officer be fired for promoting human rights?

Amy Blanding was director of inclusion, diversity, equity and accessibility at the Northern Health Authority of British Columbia for six years. She is now suing her employer for wrongful dismissal and denial of her Charter rights.

The dispute revolves around her off-work activity as a social justice advocate and singer-songwriter and her opposition to the killing of over 42,000 people in Gaza over the past year.

Her supervisor, Vash Ebbadi-Cook, resigned from Northern Health in protest against the treatment of Blanding.
