Data centres, rising demand, and Alberta's energy bills | Pembina Institute

Canada needs more electricity — fast. In part, this is due to the projected growth of data centres that can power artificial intelligence and the increasing demands of our digital services.

From Turkish Tylenol to the failed DynaLife privatization efforts, hundreds of millions of dollars have been wasted that should have been spent on building the capacity of our public health-care system. Month after month the UCP government's corruption has only gotten worse.

This should be obvious to everyone! When I had a back issue that took me out of work for 9 months, the hospital PT was best, altho I went to many private clinics. Why? Her range of cases was greater. She knew more. Private healthcare is a misuse of $$ and disservice to users.
