The news article "Shimon Peres asks Dalton McGuinty for meeting of minds" was published on Monday, May 24, 2010 by the Toronto Star. It was really a surprise announcement for McGuinty and pretty good news for Toronto. It turns out that he has asked Ontario to partner with Israel in leading-edge brain research.
And the news gets better. In what seems to me the most beneficial Premier's trip for Ontario during this government term, our Premier has decided to name a Chief Scientist to advise the government on scientific issues. See "Israeli scientific success convinces Premier McGuinty to name a chief scientist to advise government" for the complete story. As far as I can recall, the trip our Premier made to Israel has had the most positive potential impact for our province. I will keep my fingers crossed, hoping these plans come to fruition in the near future.
