Canadian pediatrician Kulvinder Kauer Gill, MD has been given a helping hand by entrepreneur Elon Musk, owner of “X” (formerly Twitter), who volunteered to pay her legal bill in a libel lawsuit against the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CSPO) in Canada.
In 2021, the CPSO, which is a regulatory body that grants licenses to practice medicine in Canada, warned Dr. Gill, whose pediatric practice is based in Brampton, Ontario, about her tweets opposing COVID-19 policies on the social media platform Twitter. Gill had made statements saying COVID shots were not necessary since most people had natural immunity to the SARS-CoV-2 virus.1 She said was no scientific rationale for keeping people at home to prevent transmission of the virus.2
Doctors, academics and journalists criticized her for her opinions opposing COVID shot mandates and lockdowns. Consequently, she filed a $12-million libel suit against 23 defendants to clear her name from what she described as “spurious defamation.” She said she was harassed and experienced censorship for opposing Ontario’s COVID policies.
Justice Elizabeth Stewart struck down Gill’s lawsuit and told Gill to pay the defendants $1.1 million in legal costs. Gill appealed the decision and high court cost order, which resulted in a lower cost order of nearly $300,000 in February 2024.3
Elon Musk Offers to Pay Gill’s Legal Costs
In November 2022, Gill was ordered by the court to pay $300,000 by the end of March 2024. She said she did not have the funds, and went on to create a crowd-funding campaign asking for $300,000 to help pay for legal costs.4 A statement on the crowd-funding website which helped raised funds read:
Dr. Kulvinder Kaur Gill is a frontline physician in Ontario, Canada who supports fully informed voluntary consent without any forms of coercion or restriction in all medical decision-making. She is a long-time advocate for patient autonomy, evidence-based decision-making, protection of the patient-doctor relationship, and an accessible, quality healthcare system.5
With respect to the court order, Gill stated:
Everything I warned about in 2020, which at the time was based on peer-reviewed evidence, has now come to pass. It’s been absolutely heart wrenching and devastating watching the carnage unfold. And being helpless. Because it was all completely preventable. It seems that advocating for the truth and advocating for that scientific evidence to come forward has come at a huge cost.6
A few days prior to the court order deadline, Gill tagged multi-billionaire Musk, who had purchased Twitter in October 2002 and renamed it ‘X,” in a post on X asking him for help saying she owed $300,000 in legal costs that were due in four days. A few days later, Gill made an announcement stating that Musk reached out to her and committed to paying the remainder of her crowd-funding campaign and helping her appeal the College of Physicians and Surgeons’ cautions on her record from 2021.7
In August 2023, Musk had posted on X promising to fund the legal costs of anyone who was “unfairly treated” by their employer as a result of posting or liking something on the X platform. He said there is no limit on what he would pay in legal costs.8 On Mar. 24, 2024, the company stated in a post on X:
X is proud to help defend Dr. Kulvinder Kaur Gill against the government-supported efforts to cancel her speech… Free speech is the bedrock of democracy and a critical defense against totalitarianism in all forms. We must do whatever we can to protect it, and at X we will always fight to protect your right to speak freely.

Oh my goodness. God bless Mr. Elon Musk. I would suggest that anyone reading this article pray for him and his safety, and the safety of his family members. I know I am.
What champions! Free speech is clear. People can think what they want and say what they believe. Following other people’s advice or not is also a freedom. The fact that she has to pay for offending others who do not believe as she does, should not be allowed to stand. Thank you Elon for helping.
I think there’s a grammatical error in this story.
Was “Gill had made statements saying COVID shots were necessary …” supposed to say “Gill had made statements saying COVID shots were [NOT] necessary…”?
Great news but please always stay on guard as Musk has shown countless times that he serves the NWO agenda including having worn a white suit coat to a Met gala with Novus Ordo Seclorum emblazoned in large letters on the back. He makes the sign of Osiris (symbolizing Lucifer/Satan) with his arms folded across his chest in an x form. Hence the overall trend of labeling many things with an x to include WHO with its “disease x” and Jill Biden promoting “Latin-X” ‘gender neutral language’. Neuralink, satellites and 5G, and electric cars are part of the global transformation. Musk’s mother does very public Masonic poses and his maternal grandfather Joshua Haldeman oversaw the Canadian branch of Technocracy Inc (plan for global totalitarian surveillance and rationing) and was Chairman of Canada’s Social Credit Party before being forced to leave the country facing sedition charges. Musk said he wants to make Twitter/X a one stop service for doing all of life’s daily activities, similar to China’s Weibo which is used by the CCP to gather data for social credit scores.
Thank the Lord that the truth is coming out, and that there are generous people like Elon Musk who care about justice.
God Bless Elan Musk! He is such a kind good soul. I pray God Blesses him even more than he has already. I am nobody but I’d like to call him my friend.
