    Would’ve loved if the article specified what research centres were closed, what exactly they were doing, and how much they cost.

    I was very upset when the feds closed the Weather Radar Research Group, but these “seven research facilities” don’t have any of those specifics.

    For example, it makes a big difference if the government cut a vertical farm research centre that cost $500k/year, or if it was an experimental cattle farm and cost $5 million/year. The latter, I would agree with closing.
