Alberta campus bans academic Frances Widdowson
Academic Dr. Frances Widdowson, known for her work exposing myths around the Kamloops Residential School, has been pre-emptively banned from a University of Lethbridge campus.
The University of Lethbridge Faculty Association says Dr. Frances Widdowson, an academic and outspoken critic of the narrative that 215 children’s bodies were found at the former Kamloops Indian Residential School, has been pre-emptively banned over an alleged “health and safety risk” her presence poses to students and staff.
Widdowson shared the university notice, which was titled “Individual on Campus Alert,” wording that her supporters say suggests a legitimate threat to campus security.
