If Canadian universities had a bit of vision, they would be launching a Manhattan project to poach every US-based top researcher. And the federal government would be drastically expanding tri-council funding and creating an expedited review process for those holding NSF and similar grants.

                                            Prison admissions for Black and White Americans with and without any college education.
                                                
    
    
    
    
            Educational inequality in prison admissions is now much greater than racial inequality for all major crime types, a pattern researchers link to the end of the war on drugs and shifts in the demand for low-education workers.

Politics, history, #finsky (stocks, LEAPS options, futures), my Doxie darling, fitness, education. 
Not as dumb as I seem, nor as smart as I think.
I like having a lot of contrarian asymmetrical positions; frequent small losses then win big.
