Let me guess...Western University is top of the funding list? Sounds like fascism!

In other words, emulate China; total gov't control, like the uncontestable power Trudeau tried to entrench at beginning of pandemic. It turns out that with help of his NDP lackeys, he's now got it as long as he wants, without going thru any democratic process

The capital investments required are actually relatively small for the strategic capabilities and capacity that can be brought online. Many in Canada seem ill-informed about the industrial capabilities that have been developing right here at home over the past 25-plus years.
