Cutbacks to Scientific Research

Here is an article in the Globe And Mail that expands upon the post below this one. CAUT, a lobby group for university teachers and researchers, had a meeting with the Minister Of Science And Technology. CAUT was concerned that the government was cutting research funding in Canada, instead choosing to spend university funding on building and construction. It shouldn’t surprise us that the Conservatives are doing this, after all Harper did get rid of the National Science Advisor.
