It has met with great enthusiasm and I thought that our members might like to join in. Very recent comments from senior cabinet ministers suggest that we have their support. Now is the time for us to show our own concern and to encourage others - students, support staff, vendors etc etc to communicate their concern for the level of MRC funding to our leaders. Below is Reinhart's message to the Toronto research community. I attach an Acrobat pdf file which when printed will generate two pages which can photocopied onto card stock to generate post-cards for mass distribution to colleagues, students etc. As the cards are addressed to the PM no postage is needed. I encourage all of you to write a letter and have your departmental office produce the cards for faculty, students, staff and all others who are part of our scientific enterprise. Peter Lewis Vice-President CSBMCB ****************** ANOTHER BUDGET CUT TO MRC? The MRC budget may be cut by another 3% in 1998/99. This is in addition to cuts made in the previous three years. The MRC budget has decreased by 13% over 4 years. In the last MRC competition only 28% of grants were funded. Funded grants had their recommended budgets reduced an average of 20 %, some as high as 34%. Decisions are being made now by the government concerning the 1998/99 federal budget. This is our opportunity to influence these important decisions. We can make a difference. Get involved. If you are concerned: * call or meet your local Member of Parliament *Listed in Parliamentary Internet: http://parl30.parl.gc.ca/36/sm-e.htm * write immediately to the following: *Your local MP *The Right Hon.
