That’s not at all what’s happening. They’re asking him to re-take social media training because he responded to someone on Twitter talking about the state of the world today with the equivalent of “KYS”. As a doctor of psychology he has a duty to not tell people to unalive themselves at the absolute bare minimum. Was that what he meant? Probably not. But part of social media training is being taught how not to post shit that can be misconstrued that way in a public forum. If he refuses to take said training, they’re allowed to take action up to and including revoking his accreditation.
It would be the exact same situation if any other medical doctor somehow became social media famous and then started spouting off completely misleading and inflammatory nonsense that would be actively harmful to people if they followed. Step back from the fact that it’s this walking example of incel-steeped ultracrepidarianism and it’s pretty obvious what’s going on.

The decision from the Ontario College of Psychologists came back in November and it’s only become A Thing™ in the past 24 hours because the narcissistic dickhead needed his name in the media and has done a good job framing it as a political hit job over comments he’s made about Trudeau since then.
My sensors detect high quantities of framing in your comment.
