It’s rare that a Canadian university prof ends up on talk shows around the world. But Jordan Peterson, who teaches psychology at the University of Toronto, got there because he refused to the obey the rule that says people who self-identify as ‘trans gender’ are entitled to ‘non-binary pronouns’. From that starting point, Peterson has emerged as Canada’s best known academic intellectual since Marshall McLuhan. He is vilified by some feminists as being a misogynist of the alt right, a charge that he strongly denies.
