A former Ottawa-area teacher is contesting an attempt by the Ontario College of Teachers to force her to surrender her teaching licence over her social media comments about gender issues.
Amy McKay, a former long-term occasional teacher with the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board in Ontario, was told by the regulatory body this spring that a complaint had been filed against her nearly two years earlier by her former school board. The college said she could either give up her teaching licence or face an investigation, according to the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF), a non-profit legal organization representing McKay.
