CTV talks to John Cameron about certification of class action against the Provincial Health Services Authority over employment of fake nurse in BC
July 27, 2023
On July 27, 2023, CTV interviewed John Cameron about the class action lawsuit certified against the Provincial Health Services Authority (PHSA) on behalf of approximately 1,150 patients who had interactions with an unlicensed nurse during her employment at B.C. Women’s Hospital (BCWH) for more than a year. This legal action could provide a collective path to justice for those affected by the deception of Brigitte Cleroux.
John Cameron emphasized the difficulty of individuals taking legal action separately. He explained:
As the court noted in this decision, the chances of any one individual woman issuing her own lawsuit against the hospital is very slim because it’s not practical to do so,” but if they could all work together—then there’s a chance that all of them could get access to justice.
