Attracting talent from outside Canada is good in principle, but not at the price of forgetting about all the brilliant researchers who are already in Canada looking for a good position within Canada. 🇨🇦

Jungle brunch nestled in a flower shop.
I took my family to a brunch spot that I found six years ago. It was memorable, but I always worry that when you return to a place it won’t live up to the original sparkle.
It was a hit. (https://kongaloosh.com/e/2025/04/05/jungle-bru)
