Dr Jordan Peterson to lose his license and to get professionally cancelled by the woke culture

Your professional license isn't dependent upon your political views.

On this we agree. It depends on your professional conduct. If this becomes unprofessional as a result of your political views, you may well lose your licence.

The short course cannot provide anything to Peterson or any professional

Most probably not, but its purpose is otherwise. It's a last-ditch attempt to accommodate Peterson and make it possible for him to keep his licence. A way for him to save face, and retain the basis of his livelihood.

who decides whether his conduct is right or wrong?

The standing ethics committee, if the College has one. Otherwise a College committee specially convened for the task.

I wouldn't think so. Since when your conduct in the social media and your political views decide whether your license is valid or not or whether you should keep practising your profession. If it was like this then thousands and thousands of professionals would have been cancelled because of their political views or conduct.

Who decides what good conduct is in a democratic society? You see what kind of problems you get when you have whatever arbiters of truth deciding what you can say and what you can't. Nobody can decide what constitutes good conduct. You said about some ethics committee (!!)

I think they don't know how to deal with Peterson and they try to find ways to cancel him professionally although what they wanted to do initially was to silence him.
