Canada’s Leading Research Universities

Developing talent, Driving innovation, Delivering impact.

From Discovery to Prosperity: A Roadmap For Homegrown Success

Executive Summary

Canada stands at a crossroads, with the rules-based international order, global
trading system, and even our sovereignty under question. Canada’s leading
research universities, which develop talent, drive innovation, and deliver impact
across the country, are a national asset that must be leveraged as our country
comes together to meet this moment.

To achieve the national objective for a strong Canada, the new government
should focus on supporting talent, research, and innovation that are essential
to strengthen Canadian industry, secure supply chains, and turn Canadian
discoveries into Canadian prosperity, sustainability, and resiliency.
