This data must NOT be made public. Doing so would compromise researcher privacy (especially for vulnerable groups), undermine confidential peer review, and expose unpublished research.
We support accountability, but it must preserve privacy and scientific integrity.

Shocking development: PM Carney plans to cut Science funding by 15%, which would eliminate most of the planned investments the govt just made last year and set Canada further back: www.science.org/content/arti... #SupportOurScience @supportourscience.bsky.social
🚨 The Canadian gov’t plans 15% across-the-board cuts to federal departments — which may include major science budgets.
If science funding is cut, graduate students, postdocs, & labs nationwide will feel the impact.
Science is our future — not a cost to cut.

"I think there’s this idea that there’s only a finite size pie, and that if someone gets more money, someone else somewhere might get less. And that’s just not the case. We want to grow the whole pie." - Executive Director Kaitlin Kharas #SupportOurScience

Congratulations to everyone who organized under the #SupportOurScience banner on the win yesterday. And to the small (very small) faction of federally funded GS & PD - fantastic! You deserve the pay raise. But please don’t discount the real concerns of your colleagues who are terrified this 1/4
While #Budget2024 is an important step, we need ongoing investments in our competitive research & innovation sectors. Let's keep investing in our researchers! #SupportOurScience
