While other countries sit in fear with "they are going to eat us" Slide 9 attitudes leading to massive secrecy, Canada begins their second UFO disclosure study called "The Sky Canada Project. The public report will be released in spring 2024. In a series of "discreet inquiries" in the United States, in 1950 Canada discovered five critical points about flying saucers based on what the director Wilbert Smith was told about the flying saucer program in the United States. Unfortunately, this material has been ignored in favor of various other stories that got more clicks. 1) The matter of UFOs was the most highly classified subject in the US, a rating higher than the H-bomb 2) Flying saucers exist 3) Their modus operandi is unknown, but concentrated effort is being made by a small group headed by Dr. Vannevar Bush (Of 'MJ-12' fame) 4) The entire matter is considered by US authorities to be of tremendous significance. 5) There were several other things, including "mental phenomena," that were being studied because of their possible link to the saucers. The study will be headed up by the Science Advisor to the Prime Minister Dr. Mona Nemer. She was the former head of research at the University of Ottawa. There are also a series of parliamentary members who are supporting the effort. I hope to have all their names before the study is released. For information on the Canadian government's earlier work in the area I have a book written on the early Canadian study. https://www.amazon.com/CANADIAN-GOVERNMENT-UFO-STORY-Wilbert/dp/B09NGS7DH1/ref=sr_1_17?keywords=Grant+Cameron&qid=1678331827&s=books&sr=1-17

« Quand vous découvrez un médicament, ce sont des milliers d'humains que vous aidez », dit Mona Nemer, nommée conseillère scientifique en chef du Canada en 2017. Les travaux de la biochimiste ont notamment permis de réduire considérablement la mortalité infantile liée aux malformations cardiaques.

As soon as a controversial topic arises, it is almost guaranteed that not everyone will be on the same page. Groups of people stand at odds with one another regarding issues that affect millions of lives.  Climate change, is it real or not? Vaccines, do they give our kids autism? Abortion laws, who does it benefit? The stakes are high. How do we overcome ill-informed ideas, miscommunication, and personal convictions that plague any attempt towards an educated discourse and address these questions in an evidence-based way? One way to educate the masses on controversial topics is to have well-informed leaders in our government. In today’s episode, “Policing Science and Science Policy”, we discuss the role of science and that researchers have in encouraging our government leaders on impartial policy-making that can then better people’s lives. We speak with Daniel Eisenkraft Klein, and incoming PhD student in Exercise Sciences and Public Health Policy, as well as Canada’s Chief Science Advisor, Dr. Mona Nemer on how research can end any doubts on controversial topics by looking at the evidence and having more researchers in leadership roles. Listen to the episode to learn how Dalla Lana School of Public Health prepares its future policy-makers, and learn how Dr. Mona Nemer utilized her prolific scientific career to help the Canadian government with scientific affairs. Research Radio is a podcast produced by graduate students in the Department of Physiology at the University of Toronto.

Mona Nemer tells Julie Gould about her role as Canada's chief scientific adviser and how she aims to strengthen science in the country."We're bordered by three oceans," says Mona Nemer of Canada, where she has been chief scientific adviser since September 2017. "On one side we are close to Europe, on the other we are close to Asia. It's a great country to study the Arctic, climate research, oceanography, but also astrophysics, information technology and health."Nemer describes her role as "convener of the dialogue between the broader science community and government," providing scientific advice to current prime minister Justin Trudeau and his ministerial team, and making recommendations on how to improve Canadian science.
