Université Laval, Ville de Québec (Québec City), and Québec International have partnered to attract scientists from the US. Together, the partners intend to position Québec City as a welcoming place for American researchers. ULaval Rectrice Sophie D’Amours noted that the political situation in the US has created a unique opportunity to attract both American researchers who no longer feel welcome in their own country and other academics from around the world who had been considering moving to the US. Le Devoir reports that Mayor Bruno Marchand is inviting city residents to donate their tax refunds to the university to help support academic recruitment.
