As every year, the House of Commons Standing Committee on Finance has invited Canadians to participate in the planning of the 2023 Federal Budget.
CAP’s Science Policy Committee prepared a strong submission stating that the financial status of HQC trainees be reviewed with a view to ensuring adequate Government investment in this important resource. It also emphasized that the competitiveness of Canada’s economy critically depends on its investment in and support of research, including discovery-driven fundamental research, and training of highly qualified people in key technologies.
