The College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC issued a citation against Dr. Daniel Nagase in relation to comments he made at a Dec. 9, 2021 event in Victoria, during which effigies were hung..A recently-posted notice says a discipline committee panel will conduct a hearing into Nagase’s alleged misconduct, which includes, according to the college, “making misleading, incorrect, or inflammatory statements about vaccinations, treatments, and measures for COVID-19.".The college specifically highlights Nagase's statements that COVID-19 vaccines are dangerous, further taking issue with the doctor promoting Ivermectin as a safe and effective treatment for the virus..The citation also notes that Nagase made the aforementioned comments while appearing in front of effigies of political figures which were hung from nooses..The event was organized by Common Ground magazine for the 75th anniversary of the Nuremberg Doctor’s Trial, where medical practitioners were charged for experimenting on people without informed consent..Common Ground spearheaded the event in response to vaccine-related policies implemented by the provincial and federal government — such as needing proof-of-vaccination to work certain jobs or access various settings..The magazine argued the policies were medical coercion and therefore violated the Nuremberg Code..Alongside Nagase, Brian Peckford — former premier of Newfoundland and the only living First Minister who helped craft The Constitution Act of 1982 — spoke at the event..The portion of the afternoon most focused on, however, involved outside demonstrators not connected to Common Ground, according to the magazine’s publisher Joseph Roberts..Roberts said demonstrators took to the stairs of the BC legislature and showcased hanging effigies with the faces of BC Premier John Horgan, Health Minister Adrian Dix, Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry, and Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General Mike Farnworth..“I told people to keep their ‘f-ck Trudeau’ posters away, we don’t want that, we want a respectful event,” Roberts told the Western Standard at the time..He briefly entertained a possibility the effigy-bearing demonstrators may have been there to discredit his cause..“I went over and explained very civilly how it is supposed to be a respectful event and the effigies have nothing to do with us,” said Roberts, explaining how this caused the demonstrators to “smirk” at him and remain in place. Roberts noted he was "creeped-out" by the demonstrators..Unsurprisingly the exhibit dominated public discourse following the event, and despite the effort of organizers and guest speakers to detach themselves from the visual, they remain inextricably connected..Nagase’s hearing, during which the hanging display will be addressed, will be posted on the college’s website once it has been scheduled.
