Dr. Jordan B. Peterson’s appeal challenging the College of Psychologists of Ontario’s mandate for social media training was dismissed by an Ontario court.
The college threatened to revoke his clinical psychology license over his criticism of transgender ideology and government.

The college is punishing him for public comments, not patient interactions.
His supposed offenses include criticizing the Canadian government and expressing opposition to certain ideas.
Peterson has vowed to make the social media training public and continue fighting.
“A higher court in Canada has ruled that the Ontario College of Psychologists indeed has the right to sentence me to re-education camp. There are no other legal avenues open to me now,” Peterson wrote.
“It’s capitulate to the petty bureaucrats and the addle-pated woke mob or lose my professional licence.”
“Congratulations, @CPOntario! You won this round,” Peterson wrote. “Mark my words, however: the war has barely started. There is nothing you can take from me that I’m unwilling to lose. So watch out. Seriously. You’ve been warned.”
“If you think that you have a right to free speech in Canada, you’re delusional. I will make every aspect of this public. And we will see what happens when utter transparency is the rule. Bring it on,” Peterson said previously.
