we flew along the coast so it might be one of these red dot fires in the circle. red = out of control (BC wildfire service map)

Friday reading… #CFI posted 2025 Report on results in May I pulled a couple of others for comparison. Employment sector data for PDFs & grad students who “moved into the workforce” confirm what we know: for at least past 10y, only ~1 in 4 are in academia. www.innovation.ca/sites/defaul...
table summary of sectors of employment of postdoctoral fellows an graduate students who used CFI infrastructure during training. it shows data for 2012, 2016, 2025 reports.
academic sector 36%, 26%, 25%
private sector 47%, 58%, 56%
public/nonprofit sector: 17%, 16%, 19%
