Canadian psychologist and author Dr. Jordan Peterson could be stripped of his license to practice clinical psychology over his sharing of political posts on social media. The College of Psychologists of Ontario which regulates the profession in his home province has disciplined Peterson over the sharing of political posts on Twitter.
Peterson says he got in hot water with the College because he retweeted posts about PM Justin Trudeau, Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre, Trudeau advisor, Gerald Butts, New Zealand PM Jacinda Ardern and others.
The College has ordered Peterson to undergo mandatory social media communication retraining to “modify his objectionable behavior.” It’s unclear what it is about the Tweets or the sharing of them that may violate the College’s Code of Ethics. Either way, Peterson says he will not comply.
“I have absolutely refused to do so,” said Peterson. The next step for the College is to demand he submit to an ‘in-person’ disciplinary hearing. If Peterson does not satisfy the College and commit to changing his behavior, it could strip him of his license to practice.
“Canada has been given over to the commissars,” Peterson said, “something I never thought I’d see in my lifetime.” He says he’ll make the issue public in the days ahead.
Some of the posts that may be drawing the ire of the College include one on December 24th in which Peterson tweeted out a link to Conrad Black’s column in the National Post: A moral imperative for Trudeau Liberals to resign.

Then on December 27th, he tweeted,
I learned to watch for people’s psychological age during my years doing intensive clinical work. @JustinTrudeau appears to me to be perpetually 14 yrs old.

Trudeau: The reflection we have to have [on using the EA] is how are so many people hurting so much that the anger against policy or government would bleed out into them not caring about impacting their fellow citizens in a terrible way? Barton: A lot of the anger was about you. https://t.co/JldvsV8bDD

Even the German socialists have figure this out. Are you watching, @JustinTrudeau — the man who claimed there was “no business case” for supplying our German allies, in the face of the Russian war, with LNG?

Has Jordan Peterson become The government of Canada’s latest political target for holding the wrong opinion?
The dear leader is not de facto PM; he is PM. What people forget is that he heads a minority government, kept in power by the unwavering support of the NDP ( Canada’s pale version of the British Labour Party or the US Democratic Party). No one here has ever criticised the NDP for keeping him in office.
The effort to discipline Peterson is not unexpected. Similar actions have been taken elsewhere. Here in B.C., the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons has suspended the licences of several doctors for questioning the efficacy of the vaccine or the masks. The Chief Medical Officer is now being taken to court to answer for lock-downs and masks and vaccine madness.
One other overlooked matter: at the very beginning of the Wuhan virus panic, the provincial NDP government in BC passed a law which prevented anyone from suing a government minister for any decision taken with respect to the Wuhan virus. The Ontario government made the same effort, but was defeated on its proposal.
That is the Canadian way! And we keep on being told that we are a democracy where politicians are responsible to the public. Laughs, anyone?
These are strange times. Peterson is being singled out by the narcissist de facto Canadian PM for about the same reasons this WEF puppet brought extra-legal penalties to bear on the Freedom protesters, mostly because they were saying unflattering things about a person that can’t do his job and the hearings since then have borne out the reality of the protesters’ words as opposed to the legal validity of the de facto PM’s actions. If you select someone for a job that does not have the intellectual, emotional, or maturity gravitas to do the job, this kind of petty tantrums is what one gets. Canada is all the poorer for it.
