Canadian scientists are people who study and explore things like animals, the environment, chemicals, and other things in order to learn more about them.
They work in specialized places called laboratories, where they use fancy equipment like microscopes, test tubes, and computers to conduct their experiments and analyze their data.
Scientists use what they learn from these experiments to help improve people's lives and help protect the environment. For example, they might create new medicines to cure diseases, or they might find ways to make cars run on cleaner fuel so that we can help reduce air pollution.
Canadian scientists are important because they help make the world a better, healthier, and more interesting place.
