“If people only knew how impactful words can be, or that phrasing something in a certain way can let a person who is queer know it’s OK to be themselves, it could save so much self-doubt, or possibly even save a person’s life!” -Mike Armstrong, #Brier2023 competitor

[Aaron Johnson @ConcordiaVision]

Canada needs to invest in its researchers, especially our early-career students and postdoctoral fellows, to offer a living wage that allows them to be full-time researchers. I urge @cafreeland @FP_Champagne @JustinTrudeau to #SupportOurScience
