Agreed
Amd Peterson would be best served NOT to comply with the mandate.
Absolutely right!
If Jordan wants to migrate to Texas, I will be his sponsor. He will be a thrill in Austin.
There must be some link between his retirement compensation and his professional credential(s) for him to even consider living in such a specious Province.
IIRC, he was of faculty with Harvard at one time in his early career. Probably better to stay in Socialist Canada than Communist Boston though the winters are no better, either place.
The “Clinical Psychologist” credential gives him a kind of standing he’d lack without it.
Here’s my testimony as a professional swindler of the young–oops, public high school social studies teacher. Back when all this stuff about affirming confused teens’ “gender identities” was becoming de rigeur, many, including those passing the orders from on high down to the dufuses in the trenchs, were very uncomfortable about this, and frightened of speaking out. We got told that if we did not agree that Johnny was really Jane, we would be aiding and abetting suicide. And there were cases where we both affirmed gender confusion and abetted suicide. We dared not notice that a few miles down the road, a boy in a skirt raped girls in the girls’ bathrooms in two schools (he was transferred from the scene of the first incident due to the lengthy legal folderol that surrounds any school discipline these days), or the girl who thought she was a boy being trafficked while the grandmother who was crying foul all the time was roasted as an uncaring, unfit reactionary.
If the detransitioners start suing, I hope their lawyer pick up the whole sex change industry–including the shrinks and social workers and guidance counselors– by its heels and sweep the floors of a million courtrooms with that obscenity’s hair.
