What you've said is absolutely true. Your summary is 100% accurate. There has been institutional capture by leftist ideologues who represent maybe 10% of Canada, and probably 90% disagree. Most people disagree, and not just Conservatives but probably Liberals and centrists. Most scientists disagree, like me or Geoff, but they don't want to say anything. They're afraid to say anything for losing funding.
I'm not sure if I answered your question, but I would say to the point that these programs fundamentally demoralize everyone. Children say, “I can't go into science.” My sons say, “I can't go into science because it's only for women.” They're McGill students.
