News Release<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Protection of Conscience Project<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A report<\/a> released on Monday criticizes the Ethics Advisory Committee of the College of Pharmacists of British Columbia for publishing a prejudicial and unjustified attack on the integrity of conscientious objectors within the profession. The report identifies ‘ethical nepotism’ in the committee as a factor contributing to misunderstanding and intolerance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At issue are statements made last year by the Ethics Advisory Committee in the College newsletter, the Bulletin<\/em>, which were expanded upon and amplified in a later Journal<\/em> article, written by a member of the Committee. Repeated requests that the allegations be substantiated or withdrawn were ignored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An access to information request filed under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act<\/em> resulted in the production of over 240 pages of documents, but no evidence to support the claims made in the published statements. Despite this, the Registrar of the College of Pharmacists refused to withdraw the statements or apologize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report makes a number of recommendations to the Council of the College of Pharmacists, among them the formulation of a policy to govern the Committee. At present, there is no policy on the selection of its members, who lack formal qualifications in ethics, philosophy, or related disciplines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
