Government, academic, industry and nonprofit scientists all have important roles. We need all of them for a thriving healthy Canada. Losing so many federal scientists is not good for our country. www.cbc.ca/radio/whaton...

UPDATE:

Due to weather conditions, we’ve made the decision to move tonight’s talk entirely online. The event will now take place on Zoom instead of the original location at St. FX.
We hope you’ll still be able to join us virtually this evening!
