Dr. Peter Canaday, disturbed by the New Zealand government’s management of Covid, decided to stand up and investigate matters. In a series of Fireside Chats in collaboration with Voices for Freedom and in public lectures around the country, he presented evidence running counter to that provided by the self-styled ‘single source of truth’ advocated by then-Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern.
For his courageous stand in defence of long-established principles of medicine, he was rewarded by the suspension of his practising certificate, a Professional Conduct Complaint, and a Tribunal hearing by the Health Practitioners Disciplinary Tribunal in April 2023. Despite providing an immaculate legal brief — which the Tribunal’s so-called expert witness hadn’t even bothered to read! — that convincingly refuted the accusations leveled against him, the Tribunal found against him and levied outrageous fees to boot.
Dr. Canaday has returned to the United States, but as a consequence of the Tribunal his career in medicine has effectively been destroyed.
Nonetheless he can hold his head high as he makes his journey to the pearly gates.
Please join us for a discussion of his efforts and travails.
