An Ontario court has upheld an order for Canadian psychologist and author Dr. Jordan Peterson to undergo "social media training" over controversial posts he made on platforms like Twitter.

Peterson filed a legal complaint against the college, arguing that they do not have control over his political commentary. However, the court dismissed his complaint, stating that the college's order falls under its responsibility to protect the profession of psychology in the public arena. Peterson has vowed to comply with the training but will make the process public, asserting that he believes he has done nothing wrong.

The Ontario court ruled that the training was within the college's mandate to regulate the profession and did not infringe on Peterson's freedom of expression. The Canadian Constitution Foundation, which defended Peterson, expressed disappointment and argued that professionals should not have to censor their speech for fear of regulatory bodies penalizing unpopular opinions. Peterson has been ordered to pay the college's legal costs and expressed his intention to retain his license while standing by his statements.

The organization is punishing Peterson for his public comments, including on social media and during podcast appearances, rather than any interactions with patients. Peterson has vowed to make every aspect of the case public and criticized the court's decision, asserting that free speech rights in Canada are delusional.

The matter raises questions about selective quoting in the publishing industry.
