What we’re about

"Dialogue is the pathway to truth." Jordan Peterson

We are inspired by Jordan Peterson's love of humanity, call for personal responsibility, and belief that as imperfect humans we can "transcend all that and set things straight."

If you follow or are curious about Jordan Peterson and the principles he upholds, this group is for you. If you value Canadian freedoms of thought, belief, opinion and expression – come join in to share new ideas and challenge destructive, divisive ones. We connect, discuss and debate in a fun atmosphere.

Every time we listen to or watch Jordan Peterson, we immediately want to discuss what he's said. Why not do that over a beer? Why not do it with more people who enjoy the same?

Big movements often start small. Let's meet, talk, and see where it leads. For the first few gatherings, Katherine and Colleen will create a bit of structure and kick off the discussions.

Our discussion group adheres to and upholds the MeetUp Community Standards:

Be welcoming. Cultivate a space driven by kindness and respect.
Be real. Act with integrity and honesty.
Be impactful. Contribute to the discussion and listen.
Be spirited. Show up with an openness to diverse perspectives and lively debate.
Be thoughtful. Challenge ideas, not people.

This group has managed to attract amazing members who demonstrate they are a fit with these principles. They make the meetings fun, thoughtful, and meaningful.

"Truth, virtue, and courage are not necessarily enough, but they are our best bet."
Jordan Peterson

Hope to see you there!

Kerr Street Mission, Oakville, ON

SPECIAL EVENT: Kerr Street Mission Saturday Breakfast cover photo

Come out to donate, prepare, and serve breakfast to those who are in need.

For more than 25 years, Kerr Street Mission has been connecting with families and youth, offering programs and services that are needed in the community. It has become a gathering place and a hub of care, offering help for the present and hope for the future.

On Saturday, May 11th our team will feed 40+ people in Oakville. After serving, we will clean the kitchen. Expect to be finished somewhere between 10:30 and 11am. Space in the kitchen is limited so sign up soon if you would like to pitch in and help. There is a donation involved with this event. One meal costs approximately $200 and we will be pitching in to cover that cost. The more attendees we have, the less we pay individually.

Thanks everyone!
