Three Ontario nurses are suing the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) and a news organisation for libel. The nurses organised protests outside hospitals across the country on Sept. 1, 2021, against mandatory vaccinations for hospital staff.
They say the organisations went beyond disagreeing with their stance on COVID measures, that they instead spread false and defamatory information. CNA defended its statements, according to court documents, saying they were “fair comment, made in good faith and without malice, on matters of public interest.”
