This is promising news for Canada …: Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is considering introducing legislation to prohibit regulatory colleges from imposing penalties on individuals for their political beliefs.
Smith says the move would prevent people like well-known Canadian psychologist and author Jordan Peterson from being reprimanded for speaking out on sensitive issues.
“Free speech seems to be constantly under attack in this country,” Smith said in a recent social media post. “As Premier, I will continue to fight for free speech here in Alberta, including for the right for people like Dr. Jordan Peterson to say what is on their mind.”
