A day after hitting the precinct media circuit to highlight more than half a billion dollars in new research funding earmarked for projects across Canada, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is booked in for a closed-door virtual meeting with senior executives at Quebec-based Nova Bus, which the advisory describes as “a leading North American transit bus manufacturer,” as well as representatives from Metro Vancouver’s TransLink.
Later this afternoon, he’ll join Digital Government Minister Joyce Murray and University of British Columbia researchers and scientists to get a video update on the Cancer Single Cell Dynamics Observatory, which, as advisory notes, “recently received research infrastructure funding from the federal government through the Canada Foundation for Innovation.”
Also making the rounds online: Green Party Leader Annamie Paul, who will start her day with a Zoom press conference (11:15 AM) before she, too, heads behind closed doors for virtual chats with CanAge CEO Laura Tamblyn Watts, a coalition of health organizations and, finally, Nova Scotia Premier Iain Rankin.
