It's a regulatory body for psychologists in Ontario Canada. All Psychologists must be registered with them to be licensed.

that would be covered by the 1st amendment in the US

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.[4]

This only covers what speech congress may abridge. Nothing of your employers or other entities. It would be different if your employer could send you to prison over your speech, but that's not the reality.

Gotcha.

I think that your workplace can't fire you for stupid reasons, like if you say to vote for another candidate that your boss wants or for refusing to participate in a tiktok video, so I assumed that there was some "free spech" protecting you for that.

Well, thats were the weeds start, your boss isn't really allowed to fire you for who you vote for, as they are not entitled to know that info (they would need to violate your rights to find out against your will).

But if you go around spewing hate speech, inciting violence they can definitely shit can you.

I meant if you said it publicly. I think they can't fire you for that.

But if you go around spewing hate speech, inciting violence they can definitely shit can you.

Yeah, that's what I was saying.
