Filmmakers Patricia Marcoccia and Maziar Ghaderi told 'Newsweek' they hoped people would start talking about the film—not about the fact that it was canceled.

A screening of a film documenting Jordan Peterson's ascent from an unknown academic to a world-renowned public figure has been canceled after staff at a New York City venue claimed they were"uncomfortable" with the show., was due to air at the ShapeShifters Lab in Brooklyn on Sunday, but Toronto-based filmmakers Patricia Marcoccia and Maziar Ghaderi received notice of the cancellation only hours before.

One such reason that critics brandish him with this label is due to Peterson's opposition to Canada's Bill C-16—an amendment to the country's Human Rights Act stating that gender expression and gender identity were"protected grounds." This resulted in the ability of the courts to punish people who do not refer to individuals by their preferred gender pronouns.

Opponents have frequently tried to silence the University of Toronto professor however, arranging protests and encouraging venues to withdraw their invites.she was extremely fed up with"cancel culture" and attempts to stifle dialogue in this way.
