Canada’s highest court has dismissed Jordan Peterson’s legal challenge of an order to undergo remedial social media training or potentially lose his licence to practise psychology in Ontario.

As is customary, the Supreme Court of Canada’s Aug. 8 decision did not explain why the court declined to hear Peterson’s case which it “dismissed with costs.”
