TORONTO: The Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF) will be appearing as an intervener in Divisional Court Wednesday June 21 in the case Jordan Peterson v College of Psychologists of Ontario. The dispute is over professional penalties imposed on Dr Peterson by the College for public statements Dr Peterson had made on social media. The complaints were made by members of the public, not by any individuals who Dr Peterson had ever treated as a patient.
As an intervener, the CCF will argue that professional regulators may not regulate off-duty conduct unless they can establish a clear nexus between that specific conduct and the legitimate interest of the profession. And where off-duty conduct engages a Charter right, like freedom of expression, regulators have a heightened duty to ensure they have given full effect to the Charter protection.
