"In the 1990s, this country was consumed with the spectre of a “brain drain”: the loss of scientific, engineering and medical talent to the U.S. in an era of Canadian belt-tightening.

“There was a very real concern that the scientific community in the country would implode,” says Alan Bernstein, president of the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR). “Science is all about people. So when you invest in science, you’re investing in people. And when those people leave, you have nothing.”

A slew of programs, old and new, have reversed the brain-drain narrative. Hoffman may be the poster child for their combined effects, and their success at cultivating deep reservoirs of talent."

I like it, Dr. 

Now, all Canada needs to do is get out of the scientists' way and let 'em get to work on behalf of Canada--and the world, too.  I'd like that even better.
