Three problems have come to our attention. The government basically gives some large corporations a tax credit instead of sending a cheque.
There is another problem. As soon as a province gives you support for your eligible expenses, you have to deduct the subsidy from either university programs, the provincial government or the municipal government. What that does is discourage action.
Third, there is access. The legislation is clear. It identifies three criteria. You must show progress, a question to answer and scientific work under way. Unfortunately, officials bend the rules to reduce spending.
