Extract

In the winter of 1970–1, about 1000 questionnaires were sent to members of the Canadian Political Science Association and la Société canadienne de science politique and to known political scientists outside the two associations with a view to procuring information about political scientists and the state of research, publication, and funding in Canada.

2 One respondent suggested the following for PHD work: $10,000–$20,000 for each qualified PHD writer, $2,000–$5,000 for each PHD supervisor, 25 per cent off regular teaching duties for each supervisor.

3 It is perhaps worth noting, by way of partial verification of the reliability of the returns, that our respondents show grants totalling $1,184,466 from the Canada Council, about 72 per cent of the grants shown in the Council's reports, 1965–66 to 1969–70, to political scientists in the form of post-doctoral fellowships, leave grants, research grants and Killam Awards ($1,648,000).
