Quote:Rather than bring another STEAM-oriented project to the region, University of Waterloo professor Marcel O'Gorman said he'd like to see Launch do something different in this community
etc etc.
If Launch is a privately-funded initiative that is not looking for public funding, why do all these people think that they should be able to tell Launch what kind of programs they should run? Mr O'Gorman can certainly run these initiatives himself, too, there is nothing stopping him. Launch sees an opportunity, I don't see why we should stop them (or even that we COULD stop them, there is nothing in what they propose that requires approvals as far as I know).
