As I understand it, the copula is normally backward (eg Is Albannach mé) so this "tusa" is the object of the copula (even though it represents the subject of the relative clause).

This is analogous to the English structure "It was me that did it" (rather than the rather stilted Victorian-school-book "it was I").
