Mr. Speaker, the government says its decisions are evidence-based, but when the government funds research, it tells science what criteria to look at. That is risky. Science is neutral, objective and apolitical. Those are the conditions that make scientific progress possible and improve the human condition everywhere without discrimination. Does the government acknowledge that criteria imposed by the federal government must never, under any circumstances, interfere with scientific progress?
