Canadian Professor Slams University Political Correctness

A Canadian professor has recorded two hour-long You Tube lectures criticizing his university’s policy on “political correctness” and objecting to government legislation that would prohibit discrimination based on gender identity and gender expression.

Jordan Peterson, professor of psychology at the University of Toronto, hit out at the institution’s new policy to make anti-racism and anti-bias training mandatory among human resources (HR) staff, stating that it amounts to “political training” as the views it promotes are “associated with radical Left ideology" and it is predicated on the assumption that group-based oppression is "everywhere". 

He added that it assumes that racism and bias exists at the university and that training is the best way to address this.
