Part 1: ​“Pre­tendi­ans” On Campus?

Queen’s Uni­ver­si­ty quick­ly reject­ed the find­ings of an anony­mous report accus­ing six peo­ple asso­ci­at­ed with the school of mis­rep­re­sent­ing their Indige­nous iden­ti­ties. That prompt dis­missal has raised ques­tions about the non-sta­tus Ardoch Algo­nquin group, and the con­tro­ver­sial aca­d­e­m­ic from the U.S. who co-found­ed it. 

We’ve also pub­lished a con­densed ver­sion of this pod­cast as a writ­ten piece.
