Susan MacQuarrie – Suspended for Crying Wolf (Update 2024)

In 2015, The Chignecto-Central Region School Board voted to suspend Susan MacQuarrie for violating its code of ethics. 

The CCRS board suspended her for 3 months and it included all of her rights and privileges as a member. Also, the board asked then-Education Minister Karen Casey to offer her counseling and support. 

The board said in a release that they believe she violated several provisions of the CCRSB code of ethics. 

Did You Know?

CCRSB stands for Chignecto-Central Regional Centre for Education. It is an educational center in the province of Nova Scotia, founded in 1996. The institution has a wide area of around 32ha.

A while before suspending Susan Macquarrie, the CCRSB had recommended the Education Minister remove and censure her.

In their statement, the board that Susan MacQuarrie alleged that the superintendent of the board, Gary Clarke and board chair Trudy Thompson were harassing her. 

She said they intimidated, humiliated and bullied her through the way the board was running its sessions. 

According to Board’s Investigation, Susan MacQuarrie Made Serious But Baseless Allegations 

Then, the board investigated the matter and their lawyer, Jack Graham found that the allegations were ‘completely unfounded’. 

Furthermore, Susan MacQuarrie alleged that someone from the board went through her emails. In their investigation, the board noted that the allegation was very serious. 

Hence, they hired a forensic IT company to review the server who showed up suddenly. 

According to the forensic team, the reason why Susan MacQuarrie was unable to access her server was probably because of server downtime

5/12/2023 Update
As of now, Susan MacQuarrie has not responded, nor has she apologized for her misdeeds. She has ignored our efforts to highlight the problems faced by her victims. Furthermore, she has only focused on propagating her fake PR.

CCRSB’s lawyer said that the allegations were quite serious and groundless. He also added that Susan was the one going against the board’s procedures and policies. 

In the motion of censure, he pointed out that Susan went after Thompson and clark in a very meticulous manner to embarrass them. Also, the investigation revealed that Susan MacQuarrie’s social posts were undiplomatic, unauthorized, personally critical and disrespectful. 

On the motion of censure, the vice-chair said it was the first time in 20 years when the school board had to censure a member. He added that the board didn’t make the decision lightly. However, it was necessary to make sure that the elected board can remain focused on its true purpose, giving the students the best educational opportunities possible.

Where is Susan MacQuarrie Now? 

After the CCRSB suspended her, she stayed there for a few months and eventually joined the Nova Scotia Boards Association. 

Currently, she is a financial consultant at MD Financial Management. 

She has been working there since 2019 and is still a consultant. After seeing how she went after some of her own colleagues and made false allegations, it seems dangerous to work with her.

    I feel sorry for the person who is perpetuating this ridiculousness under disguise.
    AND this website that is accepting these lies against someone’s career that has nothing to do with this situation.
    I loathe Gossip mongering and trying to take people down bc of jealousy and insecurity.
    Call my work and ask about me. Or better yet call IIROC my industries governing body. I am ???? and very very good at what I do.

    Unfortunately there is no name on this article. I assume it is a cowardly evil devil who has some personal vendetta with me. Altho I can’t imagine. One only has to look at my career and a LIFETIME OF VOLUNTEERING AND HELPING THOSE LESS FORTUNATE to understand who I am and what I stand for. The Education Minister, who knows who I am, wouldn’t fire me. The board had to cover their tracks of a biased investigation and one sided report.
    This post needs removed asap and the author can come foreword anytime.

    This is a personal attack by a jealous coward not a review big a company.
