As I said, our goal is not to attack the funding of the research infrastructure, on the contrary. We are simply saying that we are not satisfied with this structure, namely the Canadian Foundation for Innovation, as it is currently organized.
One of the traditional demands of the Conseil national des cycles supérieurs is increased funding for all three granting councils. We find it would simply be more efficient to fund the three councils equally, based on need, rather than funding a private foundation for infrastructure, which indeed creates duplication of existing programs within the three granting councils.
