Alberta premier Danielle Smith has moved to make it harder for regulatory bodies to penalize their members for offensive speech.
Smith cited Jordan Peterson’s recent problems with the college of psychologists as the reason for passing new legislation.
“George Orwell’s fictional ‘1984’ should remain fiction,” Smith said to her followers in a video posted on X (Twitter).
