This is not how public policy should work. Public policy cannot be built on secret standards and undisclosed criteria. If AI rules are going to shape innovation, safety, and public rights, the public deserves to see the framework, understand the benchmarks, & participate in the debate.

Katie Simpson, guest host Power & Politics, usually reports from the US. She said it’s anecdotal, but she does not see a massive Dem win, particularly in the US House. The Dems are poorly led, fighting themselves, have lost the message & will lose without rural voters.

@CBCNews better get on the right side of history. This slow rolling coup by UCP is leaking out to other eyeballs. The whole country needs to know that there are really shitty things going on in Alberta, and stop being afraid of mean tweets from crazies.
Maybe Albertans need to have a conversation about Smith's attempts to insert the UCP into the appointment of judges in Alberta Because the UCP corruption when dealing with the separatists appears to be baked in #ableg #abpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
I was born and raised in Northern Ontario and I am absolutely boiling with rage at the ways in which people elsewhere are talking about the forest fires there as though this is a common occurrence. The air thick with smoke for kilometers, entire communities wiped out - this shit is not normal.
While the CPC leader parades around like some sort of rodeo whorehouse pimp, the maniacs and loonies throughout his party of maniacs and loonies are going rogue. They’re smacking the shit out of each other on X over everything on Sun Media’s list of crazy issues. Seriously Unserious people. 1/2

Meta’s AI data-center in Cheyenne, Wyoming, has been caught infecting the town’s water supply with deadly bacteria. Officials say wastewater from Meta’s AI data-center flooded the town’s pipes with the bacterium Cupriavidus gilardii, and they found the company violated industrial waste regulations.
You what’s going to happen if Canada builds another pipeline for Alberta? The Premier will look for another “intolerable act” committed against her people.

Oil companies operating in Norway made $9.8 billion in profit last year, after paying 78% tax. But they also pay the Norwegian people for the right to extract their natural resources. That’s a social democracy, where dignity is not a privilege.
I don’t mind paying for better services. But, even with the REM, Zone C and D are definitely underserved. Cars are still the primary and preferred option.

Not only is this hilarious but it really hammers home just how pathetic the centrist wing of the party actually is. It only took 3 incumbents going down in one of the most lefty parts of the country for the scales to fall from their eyes and them to realize "oh god, we suck ass at politics."

The appealing and reassuring thing about the political discourse of this platform is that it’s equally inhabited by the nihilists and anarchists, AND the progressive left (might add left of centre), late-stage capitalist political orthodoxy.
Agreed!! This is horrifying! I have just fired off an email to the company. It is clear no one did any due diligence. www.commoncause.org/articles/top...

President Trump’s decision to nominate Todd Blanche as attorney general sets up a confirmation battle that will test whether a handful of increasingly restive Republican senators are prepared to defy Trump on a high-profile nominee.

The Conservative Party of Canada has at least one leader. Maybe there’s a few hovering ghosts and one former PMs daughter wanting PP cutoff at the knees, waiting in the wings. One thing is for sure, Pierre Poilievre is not capable of speaking for all Canadians.
I wonder if Facebook is paying them to talk about how Alberta beef might have to be included in a continent wide quarantine due to uncontrolled outbreak of NWS in Texas.
