Employment Minister Boissonnault Resigns Amid Allegations of False Indigenous Heritage Claims

Randy Boissonnault, a Liberal Party politician, has been facing accusations of "race shifting" or being a "pretendian" due to his claims of having Cree heritage, which he claimed to have inherited from his great-grandmother. However, an investigation by the National Post found that his claim was untrue. As a result, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's office has announced that Boissonnault will "step away from cabinet effective immediately" to allow for the clearing of the allegations made against him.
