I don’t share most of Dr Petersen’s politics but support his right and everyone’s right to free speech. What is happening in Canada is extremely frightening and is starting to be echoed in the US with a Davis California library shutting down a speaker for calling transidentified males men at a meeting on saving women’s sports. Seems to me that this approach of the Courage Coalition is conceding that the state has a right to dictate if or how one can express one’s opinions and that can further compel “reeducation” of those with dissident views, with refusal costing one’s professional lucense. . I also don’t think there is any chance that this group or others who depart from the approved trans narrative will be chosen to do the “reeducation.” But my main point is that comperlled “reeducation” has no place in a free society to begin with.

done! thank you--good to point out to them that maybe supporting trans-identifed people is not what they think it is :).
