More and more, our leaders (which often lack any real scientific expertise, in ANY field) champion fashionable ideologies that have no sound basis in science. This will inevitably lead to serious problems now and for future generations. This must stop. Etienne L.Member of our Network of Experts E4D believes what I believe in: Canada’s democracy must support and treasure the scientific method not just as a solution to dangerous and critical challenges, but as a way of thinking about the world in general. Fancy words and handshakes and thoughts and prayers don't make change. We do. Aaron Maxwell E4D Member Well-functioning democracies need a strong dedication to the truth. Since the scientific community is at the forefront of searching for the best and most relevant truths, we need scientific perspectives to be a key part of the discussions and choices we make as a society. For that reason, we need to stand up for science and ensure it is, and always will be a key pillar of our democracies and the world at large. Unfortunately, this is not (yet) a given, so we need organizations like E4D to help make it happen. Ashley LindsayE4D Member Increasing concern about manipulation of science in the public sector, and far beyond, and seeing E4D stepping up to fight back Dr Charles K Minns E4D Member Having retired from Fisheries and Ocean Canada after almost 40 years studying and working at the world-renowned Experimental Lakes Area, I was appalled when, in 2012, the government was closing and dismantling the ELA. While, through prompt and decisive action by many key people, the ELA was “saved,” it was removed from federal control and many other important federal research programs were lost. At a time when scientific research is so critical in guiding governmental decision making, we need Evidence for Democracy, an arms-length organization, to monitor how scientific information is being used/and or stifled by our elected leaders. John Shearer E4D Member A desire to have a more open and transparent government that bases its decisions on the best science available. Byron Hardie E4D Member I got involved with E4D to support a movement dedicated to improving uptake of science-informed policy in Canada.
