Wow this sounds really reasonable, wtf kinda drugs is Peterson on if he thinks it restricts free speech...

TLDR: bill C-16 adds gender identity and expression to the list of discrimination protections, a list which already includes gender, ethnicity, religion and sexual orientation. So yeah right now you can't fire someone for being black, under C-16 this will also apply to trans people. Ontario already has this in their provincial laws, so Peterson is already living under such a "regime".

If I recall, Peterson's entire idea on that was that it would result in misgendering being considered hate speech, though it's been a while so I might be misremembering.
