\n“We are here to speak for the use of evidence in making policy at a time when the Harper government will not let the evidence speak for itself.” — Jeremy Kerr, President-elect of the Canadian Society for Ecology and Education<\/p>\n

\n“L\u2019industrie ne doit pas dire aux scientifiques quoi faire. Le gouvernement mus\u00e8le ses scientifiques: que ce soit pour la politique gouvernementale ou le d\u00e9veloppement de la technologie, un dialogue ouvert est n\u00e9cessaire.” — Dr. B\u00e9la Jo\u00f3s<\/p>\n

\n“The federal government is not only changing the way we do research in Canada, they are changing the way we
\nlearn. We are losing fundamental, curiosity-based exploration and inquiry. The world’s most important discoveries were often not made by looking for something to sell.” — Canadian Federation of Students chair Jessica McCormick<\/p>\n

\n“It was public science that proved smoking was harmful when tobacco companies tried to claim cigarettes were safe. It was public science that proved that asbestos was harming workers when the mining industry insisted otherwise. Open, public science is essential for better health care, better health policy, and a healthier Canada.” — Dr. Kapil Khatter<\/p>\n
