Universities and colleges are a launching pad for research and innovation


Over many decades, universities and colleges have made an extraordinary contribution to research and to innovation.

An important example is the work that has gone into developing approaches to addressing diseases like COVID-19.   The contributions made by people working in or people who trained in universities and colleges has been enormous.

The contribution of universities and colleges goes far beyond research and innovation in health.  The University of Manitoba has made big contributions to the design and testing of structures like bridges and roads. 

Many businesses and industries have been built on research and innovation carried out in universities and colleges or by people trained in universities and colleges.  This includes a wide variety of industries from the aerospace industries so important to Manitoba, to the mining industries, to agriculture, to information technology and communications.

Today, when businesses are having to make adjustments in many different ways in this world with the COVID-19 virus pandemic, it is vital to have universities and colleges fully functional and in a position to help.  This is not a time for making cuts to the funding of universities and colleges.  It is a time to be investing in universities and colleges because they are so important to launching research and innovation and such research and innovation is so critical to helping our society do well and our businesses succeed.

Manitoba Liberals say  to Mr. Pallister "Do not cut funding to Universities and Colleges."

Comparison between Manitoba and South Dakota shows dramatic impact of Physical Distancing

Manitoba implemented physical distancing measures in mid-March.  South Dakota has still not made physical distancing mandatory.   The result is a dramatic difference in the incidence of covid-19 viral infections between the two jurisdictions.   This graph shows the number of people with Covid-19 infections from March 27 to April 14.  Manitoba ( red line )  started leveling off about April 4 and has seen only a small increase in Covid-19 infections since then.   South Dakota ( blue line )   has seen a dramatic increase in Covid-19 infections since April 4.  Those who are skeptical of the impact of physical distancing in Manitoba should look at this graph! Data are from the Johns Hopkins daily tabulations

We need a more precise and detailed provincial plan to address the coronoavirus - Covid-19

With increasing evidence that the coronavirus Covid-19 is spreading globally, it is important that Manitoba have a clear plan to deal with a number of critical issues.  Having a clear plan will reduce people's anxiety and allow people to better plan individually.  So far the Pallister government either has not fully planned for Covid-19, or it has not released its plan.  We put out a press release this morning calling for the release of such a clear plan by the province.  Manitoba Liberals: The Time for a Coronavirus Plan is Now WINNIPEG – With new coronavirus cases emerging in South Korea, Italy and elsewhere around the world, Manitoba Liberals say the Manitoba Government needs to show they are ready with a plan to ensure Manitobans stay as safe as possible in the likely case that the virus reaches Manitoba. The virus has been spreading around the world, with 82,000 cases and nearly 3,000 deaths. While it started in China, there have been recent outbreaks in South Kore
