Canada’s new budget aims to lure U.S. researchers to relocate

This data must NOT be made public. Doing so would compromise researcher privacy (especially for vulnerable groups), undermine confidential peer review, and expose unpublished research. We support accountability, but it must preserve privacy and scientific integrity. #SupportOurScience

Support Our Science @supportourscience.bsky.social · 31/10/2025

We're concerned about the SRSR motion requesting 25 years of disaggregated tri-council data. While we understand the data is intended to be anonymized, this wasn't explicitly stated in the motion – and the specific information requested could still enable re-identification when linked together.

At @supportourscience.bsky.social, we advocate for stronger federal investment in research funding and equitable pay for trainees — ensuring that Canada remains not just a destination for talent, but a place where researchers can build thriving, lasting careers.

National Stipend ✅ Create a national minimum net stipend and increase research grants to sustain it. Graduate students & postdocs deserve fair, stable support. Investing in researchers = investing in Canada’s future

021

Support Our Science @supportourscience.bsky.social · 02/09/2025

Embedding support in research grants: ✅ Embed trainee support as an evaluation criterion in Tri-Council research grants. Because research excellence depends on supporting the people who do the work.

Support Our Science @supportourscience.bsky.social · 02/09/2025

Tri-Council & Inflation ✅ Advance Budget 2024 Tri-Council grant increases by 1 year to attract top talent. ✅ Index grad scholarships & postdoc fellowships to inflation. Canada risks losing researchers if support doesn’t keep pace

101

Support Our Science @supportourscience.bsky.social · 02/09/2025

Funding Protection: ✅ Protect research grants, scholarships, and fellowships from government-wide spending reviews. Cuts to research are cuts to Canada’s future.

Support Our Science @supportourscience.bsky.social · 02/09/2025

Our primary ask: The Government of Canada must exempt Tri-Agency base research grants, CRTAS scholarships and fellowships, and trainee funding from the current spending-review reductions, and recommit to fully implementing Budget 2024 research investments.
