Micromanagement in Federally Funded Research in Canada Reaches Unheard Of Lows

A quip from the CBC on a predicted drop in Federally funded research in Canada for 2013-2014 comes with a bonus stock photo of Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper visiting a lab.

He's probably just visiting, but in light of previous complaints of micromanagement by the PMO, could point to a trend towards doing the same in labs across the country.

Stephen Harper personally ensures that science is being done right. (Source: CBC)
