Kenneth Zucker during his time at the GIC
Dr Ken Zucker has an impressive CV. The editor of the prestigious journal Archives of Sexual Behavior, he took a leading role helping devise diagnostic and treatment guidelines for gender dysphoric individuals, and headed the group which developed the DSM-5’s criteria for its “gender dysphoria” entry.
Zucker also helped write the “standards of care” guidelines for the World Professional Association for Transgender Health, which is a textbook relied upon by clinicians who treat gender-dysphoric patients and those presenting as transgender.
Why, then, was he sacked from GIC (part of The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) in 2015, and eventually awarded a massive payout following a case he took against his former employer? I visited Zucker at his home in Toronto to find out, and to talk about whether his views on gender had changed since he has been hit with a whole heap of slurs and accusations of ‘transphobia’ and bigotry. Have a listen and find out the whole story, straight from Zucker.
“CAMH apologizes without reservation to Dr. Zucker for the flaws in the process that led to errors in the report not being discovered and has entered into a settlement with Dr. Zucker that includes a financial payment to him.”
