This article has a number of problems:

1. Lack of references. There are lots of facts and figures but where do they come from?

2. NPOV? The "History" section (negative tone?) and "Funding" section (positive tone?) seem biased along political lines (i.e. Conservative vs Liberal). Example:

"The IIO was essentially a private corporation..." (It's actually a federally registered not-for-profit corporation: Corporations Canada profile)

3. Contains speculative statements. Example:

"The Provincial-Federal relationship will be key to the success of the new Ontario Ministry of Research and Innovation, and may present an opportunity for Premier McGuinty to further the "Strong Ontario" agenda..."

(The list of ministry programs was entirely speculative so I replaced it with the complete list of programs cited on the official ministry website.)

4. Outdated information. For example, the above quote references Dalton McGuinty - who is no longer premier.
