"🇨🇦 Prime Minister Carney will introduce a federal budget this November w/ across-the-board cuts for all departments & agencies. ... [his] government is preparing 15% cuts to all departments. If the research agencies – SSHRC, NSERC, CIHR – are included in those cuts, millions of dollars of research grants will be at risk. Join Canada's research & science community & send a letter to the Prime Minister, the Finance Minister, the Minister of Industry, & your local MP." https://win.newmode.net/canadianassociationofuniversityteachers/keepinvestinginscienceandresearch #CAUT

#CAUT on #CanadianElection 2025:

In the last few weeks, we have seen growing threats to public post-secondary education.
US universities have been threatened with authoritarian interference and economic intimidation. In Canada, we’ve seen anti-education sentiments continue to grow.
We still have time to change minds as our friends and family members head to the polls.
While the challenge might feel daunting, we can start one conversation at a time.

Unthinkable a few months back with substantial implications for the international research community: The Canadian Association of University Teachers (CAUT) "strongly recommends that academic staff travel to the U.S. only if essential and necessary."

Special caution for ... "Those who have expressed negative opinions about the current U.S. administration or its policies"

Canadian universities are facing the largest cuts we’ve seen in a generation.

All levels of government need to work together to properly fund Canada's public universities. The time for a generational investment in universities is NOW.

In the course of one generation, the cost of undergrad tuition has more than doubled. Meanwhile, the cost of living has gone up 69%. What we need is affordable college and university – and instead Canada’s getting tuition fees that are outpacing inflation. #CAUT #CdnPSE

yes. I have many colleagues that maintain a substantial (primary?) focus on sports, beer, and sports and beer. Massive intellectual capacity around the world debates sport; over beer … while terrifying crises are build such that much of humanity may never recover. #CAUT #AAUP
