. Catherine Xhardez Credit: Amélie Philibert | Université de Montréal - Catherine Xhardez, a new professor in the Department of Political Science, is an expert on immigration policy and federalism who believes it is possible to "integrate in order to exist." CONTENU - Catherine Xhardez likes to shift perspective, question certainties and dispel prejudices, both her own and those of others. Born in Belgium to a pharmacist mother and physiotherapist father, Xhardez might have seemed destined for a medical future. She did in fact go into medicine, but not for long. "I didn't like it," she recalled. "My best grades were in philosophy and I set medicine aside. I wanted to get a handle on the world, to reflect, to acquire the analytic keys to understanding how power relationships operated in the organization of society." Xhardez decided to pursue those lines of inquiry and switch to political science.
