Science in trouble

I just discovered that it looks like a major Canadian funding institute has lost its place in the recent Canadian federal budget (see here and here for coverage). I'm wary of saying more than is supported by the limited information that I have, but it seems like a troubling turn for scientific research if this trend continues?! Anyone know more?
