Peterson burst from academic quasi-obscurity in 2016 with a video criticizing political correctness on campus and rejecting gender-neutral pronouns. It went viral, setting him up for constant protests, calls for censure — even firing — while establishing him as a conservative darling of the anti-PC crowd. In his new book, 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos, Peterson draws on everything from neuroscience to the Old Testament to his well-known controversial views.

He has appeared on news sources such as BBC, Channel 4, as well as several popular podcasts and shows, including the Joe Rogan Experience, Under the Skin with Russell Brand, The Rubin Report, and many more.

Peterson is speaking at the Conexus Arts Centre in Regina on Aug. 14 before heading to the TCU Place in Saskatoon on Aug. 15. Tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. Seats range from $37.50 to $102.50.
