But a court in Canada has just ruled that if he does not undergo mandatory social media training—what he calls “forced reeducation”—he could lose his clinical license, and with it, any right to counsel patients.

“I knew that the judiciary in Canada had been captured politically,” Peterson told The Free Press on Wednesday. “But I had no idea to what extent that was true.

Canada has abandoned its commitment to free speech in order to impose the Groupthink preferred by its ruling elite, even though several of the complaints on which the government acted turned out to be false. This is a warning as to what will happen in the US if we allow the protections of free speech to be eroded — and in a real sense, what is already happening with the Big Tech/Big Gov’t censorship complex. — Ed]
