Jordan Peterson Investigated, Allegedly For Criticizing Justin Trudeau
The Daily Caller ^ | January 3, 2023 | Sarah Weaver

The College of Psychologists of Ontario is investigating Canadian clinical psychologist and author Dr. Jordan B. Peterson, allegedly over criticism of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

The association confirmed on its website that it released a decision Nov. 22 requiring Peterson to complete a Specified Continuing Education or Remedial Program (SCERP), a coaching program designed to address concerns about an individual’s public conduct.

Peterson says the investigation is due to his retweeting Pierre Poilievre — an opposition candidate for prime minister — and writing posts critical of Justin Trudeau.

“I am to take a course of such training (with reports documenting my ‘progress’ or face an in-person tribunal and suspension of my right to operate as a licensed clinical psychologist,” Peterson wrote on Twitter.

Peterson said that a dozen or so people “from all over the world” alleged he “harmed” them, although none had ever been his clients.

“We are now in a situation in Canada under @JustinTrudeau where practicing professionals can have their livelihoods and public reputations threatened in a very serious manner for agreeing with the Official Opposition and criticizing major government figures,” he continued.

Its Canada. They are practically East Germany, but run by Karens and soybois. If its woke-emotional-leftist, its all good.

Canada is a tyrannical state and Trudeau is a wimpish tyrant.

This is why allowing governments to issue “licenses” is a very slippery slope.

So when does Canada open up re-education camps?

No surprise there. Peterson is outspoken on many issues.

How very Soviet of them! Will they find him guilty of "Anti-Canada Agitation" and sentence him to life in the gulags in the Yukon?

Canada does not have a meaningful Constitution and it has been a fascist country all of its existence.

I used to think of Canada as similar to a grandmother’s attic, when you go up there you find a bunch of cool old stuff you had forgotten about. Now, it’s more like a vermin-infested crackhouse that is in dire need of an exterminator operating with extreme prejudice.

People ought to start looking for doctors that are not beholden to state or country boards for licensure. Heck the Fed and State governments in the US by and large are a detriment to meaningful science or practice anyway - I’d almost view an governmental licensure as a negative at this point.

My understanding is they are telling him he has to attend a re-education.

The left repeatedly shows how dangerous and fascist they are to the world.

Is it just me, or do we have, shall we say, a slight bit of communism going on in Canada? 🤬😡

Can Peterson claim and be granted asylum in the USA due to political persecution?

Canada is now officially a communist country; Trudeau is their Fuhrer. Hitler was elected just like Trudeau. Let that sink in.
