Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Ms. Pexman, you said earlier that the size of the organization shouldn't necessarily affect research funding. If I understand you correctly, we should be funding universities based on past innovations. Can you elaborate on this?
In my opinion, the purpose of research funding is to fund future research, not to reward discoveries. Yet this is the current model of the funding structure. In your opinion, is the current funding system appropriate and does it allow for innovation? Shouldn't there be improvements so that everyone, regardless of their location or university, can make major advances in scientific research?
