I am still shocked by this and can't get over the ideological gall of it all. So I haven't said much but permit me a couple of comments.

The major mechanism that federal taxes are returned to the provinces in terms of research funding is what we call tri-council funding. /1

Despite being corrected that grants are determined by academic panels and not Justin Trudeau, Smith not only doubles down on that…

She then says that with the powers of Bill 18 she will block renewals of grants if they don’t align with UCP views.

.Danielle Smith inserting herself between the federal government and post-secondary institutions on research grants is also extremely problematic. Academic and research independence are at stake. Smith isn’t hiding her ideological motivations.

If you're wondering what the prospects for more research funding in the next budget are: the feds just clawed back $100M+ from CFI in unused funding which normally would have been carried over to the next year. They've also told CFI there's a $10M cut in the works for 2024-25.
