Jordan Peterson Unloads On Canadian Court After It Backs Psychologist Org Attempting To Censor Him

A Canadian court has upheld the sanctioning of Dr. Jordan Peterson by a psychologist governing body that has targeted Peterson for criticizing transgender ideology, climate alarmism, and the Canadian government. 

The College of Psychologists of Ontario, which has embraced radical gender theory in recent years, has threatened to remove Peterson’s clinical psychology license over his social media activity if he did not go through a so-called “specified continuing education or remedial program.” 

On Wednesday, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice ordered Peterson to pay $25,000 to the College of Psychologists and upheld the order that he go through a social media education program. 

The organization is not punishing Peterson for any interactions with patients; rather it is censuring, fining, and attempting to “reeducate” him for public comments he made, including on social media and during podcast appearances. 

Peterson responded by blasting the court and vowing to make “every aspect” of the case public.

“So the Ontario Court of Appeal ruled that [the College of Psychologists of Ontario] can pursue their prosecution,” Peterson wrote. “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.” 

Some of Peterson’s supposed offenses, according to the College of Psychologists, include retweeting Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre’s criticism of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, criticizing a former senior Trudeau aide, and expressing opposition to the idea of the Ottawa police taking custody of the children of Trucker Convoy protesters.

Other supposed offenses do not involve direct criticism of the Canadian government, such as Peterson saying on Joe Rogan’s podcast that accepting radical gender theory is a sign of “civilizations collapsing,” calling climate change models unreliable, and criticizing Sports Illustrated for putting a plus-sized swimsuit model on the cover.

In the latest ruling, the court ruled against Peterson’s application to block the forced training, claiming that the College of Psychologists had a compelling public interest in regulating Peterson’s statements. 

“I have concluded that the application should be dismissed. In my view, the Decision of the ICRC [Inquiries, Complaints and Reports Committee] adequately and reasonably considered Dr. Peterson’s statements in the context of the College’s statutory mandate to regulate the profession in the public interest,” wrote Judge Paul Schabas.

Schabas also claimed in the decision that “the order is not disciplinary and does not prevent Dr. Peterson from expressing himself on controversial topics; it has a minimal impact on his right to freedom of expression.”

On Tuesday, prior to the release of the decision, Peterson wrote on X that he stood by his comments.

“The decision of an Ontario court re the allegations levied against me by [the College of Psychologists of Ontario] is due tomorrow. I stand by what I have said and done and wish them luck in their continued prosecution. They’re going to need it,” the best-selling author and DailyWire+ host said. “I tweeted and otherwise expressed my opposition to trans surgery butchery, [Justin Trudeau] and his minions, and the lying climate apocalypse-mongers. All that’s looking pretty good from my end. And if I can’t express such opinions in Canada, I will let the world know.”

Bodycam Footage Shows Police Rescuing Woman Chained To Floor Of Kentucky Home

Police bodycam footage shows the rescue of a Kentucky woman who had been chained to the floor of an upstairs bedroom of a Louisville home.

Moises May, 36, was arrested two days after the rescue and charged with one count of kidnapping, intimidating a participant in the legal process, wanton endangerment, assault, terroristic threatening, and harassment, according to WAVE.

On August 16, the Louisville Metro Police Department was called to a home where a woman was seen screaming for help out of a second-floor window.

Neighbors had called police after the woman managed to break the window and call for help, the New York Post reported.

Police arrived and tried to gain entrance into the home but discovered that the entire first floor – doors and windows – was barricaded. Newly released bodycam footage shows police attempting to knock down doors and break windows to get inside the home, to no avail.

Police could see the woman yelling for help and got a ladder from a neighbor to reach her on the second floor.

Once inside, they find a woman crying and frantic, with a chain locked around her neck and attached to the floor.

“The woman had a chain around her neck, which was secured by a MasterLock, and that chain was bolted to the floor with screws,” the LMPD said, according to the Post. She apologizes and tells the officer that the man holding her as a prisoner had kept the key to the lock with him on his keychain. The officer then uses a hatchet to break the metal connecting the chain to the floor.

Once outside, police and firefighters begin treating the woman and remove the chain from her neck with bolt cutters.

Two days later, police arrested May. He allegedly trapped the woman after they had an argument that turned physical, during which he held her down on the bathroom floor and chopped off most of her hair with a machete. May and the unidentified victim share a child together, according to an arrest report obtained by WAVE.

After the fight, the woman left the home, but when she returned to gather her belongings, May locked all the doors with a deadbolt and trapped her inside. May allegedly forced the woman to remove her clothes and told her: “You’re gonna get it tonight. I told you the next time you leave and don’t come home, I’d kill you.”

He then allegedly took her upstairs and chained her to the floor. Eventually, he left the home and took her cell phone, but she managed to break the window and get the attention of neighbors, according to police.

May has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
