Another one of Harper's Nazi measures is lynched.
Cheers as Trudeau names Mona Nemer as chief scientist
Recent grumblings about the Trudeau government's commitment to evidence-based decisions turned into cheers on Tuesday after the long-awaited introduction of Canada's new chief scientist.
A distinguished medical researcher, Mona Nemer, has been chosen to take on the new role, delivering on a long-standing election commitment after two years of delays.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Science Minister Kirsty Duncan introduced Nemer at a news conference in Ottawa, describing the move as a "big step forward." It follows some recent criticism and concerns over funding shortfalls in important areas such as climate change science and environmental monitoring.
Nemer said she was "happy and proud" to be taking over the new role.
"What a great day for science," Nemer said in French, in her first words at the podium.
"I'm passionate about science and passionate about Canada, so you can understand that this is a challenge that I'm very excited to take on."

Muzzled scientists? Trudeau carries on just like Harper

Where’s the bark from Canada’s unmuzzled scientists?
OTTAWA -- The Justin Trudeau government is on pace this year to preside over the biggest-ever recorded cut to the number of federal environment scientists.
Statistics Canada earlier this year forecast the number of scientific and technological personnel at Environment and Climate Change Canada would be reduced this fiscal year by nearly 11% -- or 406 jobs -- compared to 2015-2016. StatsCan started counting federal scientists in 2000.
(Isnt that WONDERFUL? LIE-berals and their civil service union Hog allies LIED relentlessly about Harper and claimed - among other things - that he was a climate DENIER -simply because he FROZE THE WAGES of civil servants as a result of the 2008 economic melt down! LIE-berals pretended that freezing Hog wages somehow equaled approval of pollution!!!!! And now Our idiot Boy is FIRING the scientists! Such remarkable hypocrisy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Officials with Environment Minister Catherine McKenna's office said late Monday that StatsCan's forecast is based on data provided before the 2016 budget and that, as Environment Canada got a spending bump of $120 million this year in the budget, more scientists are likely to be hired.
Environment Canada officials, though, could not say how many or when.
(Oh yes- just the usual LIE-beral bait and switch! Why fire the scientists only to hire them again later? Unless you are planning to offer them CHEAPER WAGES and shorter contract work? And the scientists will swallow it because govt money is the only money available to them!)
Fewer scientists under the Trudeau government works against a narrative that the previous Conservative government was anti-science. A headcount by the Sun shows the Stephen Harper government did not appear to have singled out scientists for cuts and, in fact, at Environment Canada, it worked to preserve scientific jobs.
(AS mentioned- frozen wages does not equal an attack on the environment! And many scientists are now looking at the reality that frozen wages are superior to NO WAGES! Such is the lesson of LIE-beral bait and switch!!!!!!!!!!!)
As the civil service grew in Harper's early years, to so too did the number of scientists, peaking in 2011-2012 with 39,189 scientists employed across all government departments.
(Oh DEAR? Harper actually HIRED SCIENTISTS? The ones Our idiot Boy is NOW FIRING ???? I guess LIE-berals figure they already know everything they need to about the environment?????????)
Then, as the civil service was trimmed after 2011 to help fight the deficit, the number of scientists on the public payroll fell in rough proportion to the overall civil service.
That said, the Conservative axe fell a little lighter among Environment Canada scientists. The headcount there did dip by 6% in 2010-12 but then grew by 9% the next year. And by 2014-15 — another other Harper year — the number of scientists at Environment Canada peaked at an all-time high of 3,830.
(So the head count GROWS even as LIE-berals wail about the Harper war on the environment? Such amazing duplicity by LIE-berals!!!!!!!!!!!)
The current forecast has just 3,386 science jobs at Environment Canada, which would be nearly 12% fewer than the peak employed two years ago by the Harper government.
(The cynic will assume that LIE-berals do not need or want too many scientists around because it might blow up in their faces!! Having lots of well informed eggheads telling the world that the LIE-beral carbon crap and trade scam is NOT saving the environment is NOT a message LIE-berals want the public to hear!!!!!!)
