Controversial Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson has launched a legal
challenge against the College of Psychologists of Ontario after he said the
governing body threatened to pull his practicing license if he doesn’t
complete social media re-education for comments he made on Twitter and the
Joe Rogan podcast.
Peterson, 60, filed an application for judicial review with the Ontario
Divisional Court, the Toronto Sun reported Wednesday, as the clinical
psychologist has said he will refuse to comply with the regulatory body’s
demands.
The CPO, which oversees practicing psychologists in Ontario in order to
protect patients from professional misconduct, ordered Peterson to complete a
mandatory “Specified Continuing Education or Remedial Program” to “review,
reflect on and ameliorate [his] professionalism in public statements,”
according to a lengthy list of requirements from the college that Peterson
shared on Twitter.

demands that he undergo "re-education" and social media training or possibly
lose his license.

He must meet with a psychologist for coaching classes, which he must pay for,
until a final report is issued by the coach that shows their concerns have
been “properly ameliorated.” The CPO reached its decision on Nov. 22
following an investigation.
“I’m not complying. I’m not submitting to re-education. I am not admitting
that my viewpoints — many of which have, by the way, been entirely justified
by the facts that have emerged since the complaints were levied — were
either wrong or unprofessional,” he wrote in the National Post Wednesday
evening.

Peterson, 60, has faced a number of controversies over the years.
“I’m going to say what I have to say, and let the chips fall where they
will. I have done nothing to compromise those in my care; quite the contrary
— I have served all my clients and the millions of people I am communicating
with to the best of my ability and in good faith, and that’s that.”
“If it becomes necessary” for him to attend the classes, he pledged to make
all of the details of what they’re teaching public.
In June, Twitter suspended Peterson for a post about trangender actor Elliot
Page that broke the platform’s rules “against hateful conduct.”
“Remember when pride was a sin? And Ellen Page just had her breasts removed
by a criminal physician,” Peterson tweeted.
Actor Elliot Page was a target of one of Peterson's tweets in June, 2022.

Twitter’s new CEO Elon Musk reinstated Peterson’s account in November after
Musk took over the company.
A month earlier, Peterson announced he would be stepping away from social
media after he caught heat for retweeting a New York Post article about
plus-size Sports Illustrated model Yummi Nu, calling her “Not beautiful,”
adding that “no amount of authoritarian tolerance is going to change that.”
In January, the former University of Toronto researcher claimed on “The Joe
Rogan Experience” podcast that being transgender is a result of a “social
contagion” and similar to “satanic ritual abuse,” and suggested that
acceptance of the trans community is a sign that “civilization’s collapsing.
”
In response, critics again denounced Spotify’s Rogan podcast for having “
peddled harmful anti-trans rhetoric.” The CPO cited the Jan. 25 podcast
appearance in its notice to Peterson.
Peterson also claimed in the National Post that he was targeted for
supporting Canadian opposition leader Pierre Poilievre’s criticisms of the
COVID-19 lockdowns, criticizing Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his chief
of staff Gerald Butts, criticizing an Ottawa council member and making fun of
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern.
“Every single accusation is not only independent of my clinical practice,
but explicitly political — and not only that: unidirectionally explicitly
political,” Peterson, a free-speech advocate, wrote. “Every single thing I
have been sentenced to correction for saying is insufficiently leftist,
politically. I’m simply too classically liberal — or, even more
unforgivably — conservative.”
In May 2022, Peterson blasted Trudeau on Twitter for his travel ban.
“I’m at my daughter’s wedding in California. I will never forget [sic]
@justintrudeau that my father is not here because of your utterly
unconscionable, unconstitutional and vindictive travel ban,” he said at the
time.
The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board defended Peterson for “speaking his
mind” in an opinion piece published Wednesday evening.
“Professional bodies are supposed to ensure that practitioners are
competent, not enforce political orthodoxies or act as language police
outside the office,” the board wrote in a scathing column.

Peterson filed an application for judicial review with the Ontario Divisional
Court.
Peterson, who boasts over 15 million followers across his social media
platforms, told the Toronto Sun that he never had any complaints levied
against him until he drew international attention in 2016. He said he’s
since had to hire lawyers to handle the college’s complaints.
“I practiced for 20 years without being investigated, this only started when
I became a prominent public figure,” Peterson said in a phone interview with
the news outlet Wednesday morning.
He’s suspended his private clinical practice since 2017 when he said his
notoriety made it ethically impossible to continue.

Peterson penned a letter to Trudeau, which he published in the National Post,
demanding he look into the government’s regulatory bodies.
“I am not suggesting or even presuming that you or any of the people
associated with you had anything directly to do with this,” he wrote. “
However, the fact that it is happening (and that physicians and lawyers have
become as terrified as psychologists now are of their own regulatory bodies)
is something that has definitely happened on your watch, as a consequence of
your own conduct and the increasingly compulsion-based and ideologically pure
policies that you have promoted and legislated.”
