Transgender advocates want National Gallery of Canada to cancel March 9 talk
Transgender advocates want the National Gallery of Canada to cancel a talk by a Toronto psychology professor who refuses to use gender-neutral pronouns, but others say that would not be progressive and violates free speech.
One of the advocates, Cara Tierney, is also a former employee of the gallery. She has emailed the federal art institution to try to get Jordan Peterson's talk cancelled.
Others also spoke out, which you can see in the link below.
More people supported the call on Thursday.
Jordan Peterson's defenders spoke up for free speech.
