I can give a short answer. As my colleagues said, we are not asking for more money. When we said that IRAP should be changed, that means you need better specialists for the evaluation of ideas. Also, when it comes to CIHR, we are not asking for more money, but for more focused strategies. That doesn't mean distributing money equally. It means making a priority area, for example, high field MRI, and bringing that interdisciplinary group of researchers together. That would help. That means not more money, but changing the structure of how money is spent. That would help as a first answer.
