Timeless Truths: The Link Between Socrates’ Teachings and Jordan Peterson’s ’12 Rules’
Commentary I invited Jordan Peterson to my university in 2013, years before he famously opposed Bill C-16.

But to seed…
Why Jordan Peterson Quit Academia
Commentary Woke supremacy has been taking a toll on Western civilization. The casualties of wokeness are too many and sundry to track.

The academy is the cathedral pulpit from which the ideological dictates of the elite…
Rex Murphy: How the ‘Cancel Culture’ Mob’s Attempt to Silence Jordan Peterson Backfired
Commentary Cancel culture is a misnomer for the ages. If it is anything, it is first surely not a culture, but its very opposite and antithesis.
