Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives' war on science continues. Yesterday, they stood one by one and voted against public science, basic research and evidence-based policy-making. The Conservatives voted to continue their anti-science policies and to muzzle their scientists. They committed to end research that does not serve their ideological agenda and slash overall scientific funding.
How can Canadians have faith in any scientific research that comes out of the government when it so blatantly puts its partisan agenda ahead of the scientific community, ahead of the public interest and ahead of Canadians?
