Innovation Minister François-Philippe Champagne said Ottawa put in place stricter guidelines in 2021 to require national-security reviews for academics seeking federal funding from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council
Innovation Minister François-Philippe Champagne has reproached Canadian universities for collaborating with Chinese military scientists and vowed to bring in new national-security guidelines to better protect cutting-edge science and technology from ending up in the hands of China.
Mr. Champagne said Ottawa put in place stricter guidelines in 2021 to require national-security reviews for academics seeking federal funding from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council . It also promised to set up a research security centre to provide advice and guidance directly to universities.
The Official Opposition called on the federal government to ban research partnerships with Chinese military scientists and issue an order to advise provinces and Canadian universities to do the same. The Conservative MP said the minister should not shy away from instructing NSERC, the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and the Canada Foundation for Innovation, on where to draw the line.
“This is just the tip of the iceberg. There are about 60 Chinese universities and labs that are focused on the military,” she said.
