Call the program "Discovery, Exploration and Innovation" (DEI)

If Canada's in the mood for some fun and not afraid of the US, we should find $1 billion dollars and offer to fund the labs of top US scientists who move their work here.

I love this as a Canadian. Yes.

This reads like a NASA program. Which is appropriate.

I like it. Canada could take the whole alphabet. Not going to be much left at the rate it’s being dismantled.

You're trolling but I'd follow my PI just because of that name. Plus F it, I'm tired of this.

I'll offer up my French isn't terrible and my data set skills are top notch. Plus I played hockey growing up. So, there's that.

Just plow the $1B into the Canada Research Chair program and speed up the process.

No, not the top dogs, who don't really *need* it to survive. They would breeze in, take all the money, coast and soon move onto greener pastures. However, the same money could go further with young up-and-comers.

Think draft picks rather than superstars.

zero downside that I can see, would love to see more STEM enrolments spike too

Except Canada couldn't care less about science.
