Scrum is not about any of the things that Scrum proponents claim it's about.
Specifically, it's not about agility, it's not about velocity, it's not about quality, it's not about including the "customer", and it's only about a kind of transparency that has absolutely no impact on the final product.
If he plans to buy a golden card to flee Russia, he would prefer hist destination to be a stable country. If he plans on using the US as military support, he would prefer it to stay reasonably rich, as long as it doesn't also help his enemies... And Canada and Mexico are not on the Russian list of enemies (or at least not until recently, Canada probably is now).
If you go through that route, you will end up supporting science... They'd rather kill themselves first.
