An author has won her defamation lawsuit against a University of Regina professor who called her book “racist garbage.” Candis McLean had filed her lawsuit with a Saskatchewan court eight years ago.
McLean published a book in 2016 called “When Police Become Prey: The Cold, Hard Facts of Neil Stonechild’s Freezing Death.” The book challenged the findings of an inquiry into the death of Stonechild, an indigenous teen who died in Saskatoon in 1990 at age 17 on the night he was taken into police custody. Two Saskatoon police officers lost their jobs as a result of the inquiry. However, McLean’s book says they were innocent of wrongdoing in the teen’s death.
