Carrie Bourassa’s suspension ‘bittersweet,’ says Métis professor who brought complaint to U of S

A Métis professor at the University of Saskatchewan who raised concerns about prominent academic Carrie Bourassa’s claims to Indigenous ancestry says the school’s recent decision to put Bourassa on leave is a step in the right direction.

Bourassa, a U of S professor and the scientific director of the Indigenous health arm of the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), has been put on leave from both institutions after CBC’s investigation into her claims to Indigeneity sparked online outrage. The U of S also announced Monday that it had launched an investigation into Bourassa’s claims.

Women dominate the race-fakery field, look to this being spun as a result of their victimization by the patriarchy.
