An esteemed engineering professor in Montreal says suggestions he has a parallel, full-time academic career in his native China are “absolute nonsense,” the product of misleading articles there that exaggerated his involvement in the country.
Ke Wu of Polytechnique Montreal said he has been at times a visiting professor at three universities in China and did a sabbatical at one of them, but said those are “very conventional” academic collaborations that “contribute to Canadian well-being.”
And he said his 2011 role as a delegate to Beijing’s People’s Political Consultative Conference was purely as an observer and to introduce “fresh air” to the Communist Party advisory body.
