By increasing diversity, we bring different experiences, ideas, and perspectives to advance Canadian science, grow the economy, and improve the lives of Canadians.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5181927\" data-originallang=\"en\">That is why I am acting on the recommendations of the fundamental science review and the evaluation of the Canada research chairs program, by limiting tier 1 renewals. This change will create new opportunities for our researchers.</p>",

Une diversit\u00e9 accrue permet de tirer parti d'une vari\u00e9t\u00e9 d'exp\u00e9riences, d'id\u00e9es et de points de vue qui servent \u00e0 faire progresser la recherche scientifique au Canada, \u00e0 stimuler l'\u00e9conomie et \u00e0 am\u00e9liorer la vie des Canadiens.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5181927\" data-originallang=\"en\">C'est pourquoi je donne suite aux recommandations de l'examen du soutien aux sciences et de l'\u00e9valuation du Programme des chaires de recherche au Canada en limitant le nombre de renouvellements d'une chaire de niveau 1. Ce changement cr\u00e9era des d\u00e9bouch\u00e9s pour les chercheurs canadiens.</p>"
