““

BCPSEF and UHCWBC met with these two distinguished guests to explore the findings of a recent research study examining the effects of COVID-19 mandates on healthcare workers in British Columbia: “If all of this was about HEALTH, I’d still be working:” Lived Experiences of Covid-19 Vaccine Mandates of Healthcare Workers in British Columbia, Canada.”

The study, authored by Dr. Claudia Chaufan, offers critical insights into how mandates have influenced the professional and personal lives of healthcare workers. With her expertise in clinical medicine and social science, Dr. Chaufan provided a compelling perspective on the real-world implications of authoritarian public health policies—an issue of particular relevance to her. .

Dr. Charles Hoffe shared how he observed the public health policies in place during COVID–including the vaccines–negatively affected his patients. When, as a concerned physician, he spoke up on their behalf, he was attacked by his licensing body, and spent many, many months facing the threat of losing his medical license.  

About the Speakers
Dr. Claudia Chaufan is a physician and sociologist renowned for her research on the social determinants of health. She investigates how political, economic, and social forces shape public health outcomes, with a focus on conditions like diabetes, obesity, and COVID-19. Her widely published work and leadership in critical health studies make her a respected voice in understanding the systemic challenges facing healthcare professionals.

Dr Charles Hoffe is a rural family doctor from Lytton, BC, who was an early whistleblower to the devastating harm from the Covid vaccines which he saw in his own patients. He has endured four years of persecution by the BC health authorities who fired him from the ER and charged him with professional misconduct and spreading misinformation for publicly revealing the evidence of harm from the “safe and effective” injections.

Talk Truth recently invited BCPSEF and UHCWBC for an interview to “unpack the legal battles and personal cost of British Columbia’s COVID-19 vaccine mandates.”

The interview featured Philip Davidson, president of BCPSEF, and healthcare professionals Terri Perepolkin and Jed Ferguson of UHCWBC—both terminated for refusing the jab. Together, they shared what it meant to be called heroes one day and cast aside the next.

The interview also explored the two major class action lawsuits BCPSEF and UHCWBC are supporting, the silence of our unions, the fight for bodily autonomy, and the emotional toll of standing against government overreach.

BCPSEF and United Healthcare Workers of BC (UHCWBC) are pleased to announce Dr. Charles Hoffe will be joining this event.

On January 26, 2025, Nick Osmond-Jones and Jonathan Kay were special guests at an online member meeting.  Mr. Osmond-Jones is a former B.C. civil servant, and Mr. Kay is an editor at Quillette. 

In August 2022, Mr. Kay shared online training materials leaked by Mr. Osmond-Jones exposing the ideological indoctrination of B.C, public employees. 

Subsequently, Quillette published an inside account of a B.C. government office DEI training session that shut down employee questions about the erasure of sex-based rights. 

In September 2024, Quillette published Osmond-Jones’ first-person account of being the whistleblower who, at great personal cost, decided to bring the ideological capture of the BC Public Service to international awareness because of the harm he witnessed. 

Here’s the interview sharing what happened, why, and the fallout from his decision.
