UCP are obviously fans of Red Green but are confusing duct tape with red tape.
Probably.
Corrupt AF.

This entire paragraph is ideological. You can agree or disagree with it but it certainly isn't an objective position.
Quote:
Partnership Grant applicants are expected to embed EDI within the design of the research, as appropriate, by using, for example, gender-based analysis plus (GBA+) and complementary approaches such as anti-racist approaches that consider systemic racism and the intersectionality of different identities in the conceptualization of the research (e.g., age, culture, disability, education, ethnicity, gender expression and gender identity, immigration and newcomer status, Indigenous identity, language, neurodiversity, parental status/responsibility, place of origin, religion, race, sexual orientation, and socio-economic status). Applicants must consider the topic and people who could potentially be most impacted (positively or negatively) or excluded by the research and proactively seek to include individuals and partner organizations from such groups or communities in the co-development of the research design to ensure a diversity of perspectives and approaches are considered.

Which basically says make sure you include these historically under-represented groups in your research so you consider the whole population. What's ideological about that?

The same reason "wearing a mask" became ideological.

It's the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council. It's research about people. If you're not factoring in EDI, so that you ensure you're including all peoples in your research, then WTF are you even bothering to do the research for? Social sciences/humanities research without EDI considerations is meaningless trash.

Ever since the UCP took over from the NDP everything became more expensive.
