On July 27, 2022, the Panel released decisions recommending no further action be taken regarding Dr. Peterson’s tweet in which it was alleged he encouraged people to commit suicide (“you’re free to leave at any point”), finding that, while “provocative and inflammatory” it “could be interpreted as innuendo, a joke, or parody”, and did not “rise to the level of disgraceful, dishonourable, or unprofessional conduct.” Additionally, a tweet critical of the involvement of the Children’s Aid Society in removing children from the Ottawa trucker protest was also found to require no further action.
The panel here is the Inquiries, Complaints and Reports Committee (“ICRC”) of the College of Psychologists of Ontario

I’d say a psychologist endorsing self harm losing his license isn’t an overstep even in countries that have freedom of speech
Just needing professionalism training should be seen as a home run for him
It also leaves out when he tweeted kink porn of factory man milking thinking it was a real thing the Chinese government is doing
