TOMORROW the science community in Canada will walkout in support of our graduate students and postdocs who haven't received a raise in 20 YEARS! Here in Ottawa, we will be marching to Parliament Hill for speeches at 2:25PM! @CBCOttawa @ctvottawa @CTVOttMornLive @OttawaMorning

20 years ago, I wanted to be Hermione Granger. The 2nd Harry Potter movie came out and PhDs made the same I make now. #SupportOurScience because 20 years was long enough for me to figure out that being a witch wasn’t a really career choice and now… neither is being a scientist

#Budget2023 claims: "[Canada's spending] on research and development as a share of GDP has exceeded all other G7 countries". Let's check the data 👇. Hmm🤔, maybe it is time to stop lying @cafreeland & @JustinTrudeau, we're scientists & we know data. #SupportOurScience

Sadly, the brain drain is already underway. In 2019, 38% of freshly minted PhDs were immediately leaving for better opportunities outside of Canada. Those numbers are likely higher today. The brain drain in just PhDs is costing our economy at least $740M/year #SupportOurScience

“This situation has significantly eroded Canada’s position as a global hub for the attraction and retention of research-enabled talent,” #BouchardReport said. “Canada is at serious risk of another brain drain without reinvestment.” globe2go.pressreader.com/article/281633…
