The 2022–2027 Quebec strategy to support research and investment in innovation is a serious endeavour. This strategy proposes investments of $7.5 billion over five years. It is a patient capital strategy that includes levers such as Investissement Québec and the Fonds de solidarité FTQ.
I am relying in particular on the report published in April 2024 by the Conseil de l'innovation du Québec. You said we had to stop sprinkling money. Meanwhile, Ottawa is scattering resources in dozens of isolated programs. There is no measurable performance plan. In your opinion, does this piecemeal approach by the federal government weaken the overall performance of Canadian innovation?
