Carney has announced a new AI strategy to ramp up adoption of the tech-bro-touted technology in a way that he says “serves all Canadians.” But BIG questions are lingering about how this aggressive ramp up will play out in a world where data centres guzzle water and destroy the environment:

I thought I was going to report on Carney’s office being caught in a lie. But it’s turned into a story of a potentially hallucinated claim that led to a politician getting widely dunked on. Oh, and a female columnist who called out the error before it was corrected? She had *her* piece pulled:
Just 90 minutes before Trump’s self-imposed deadline last night, a two-week ceasefire deal was reached. Had they not reached a deal, Trump was threatening war crimes and genocide. But what brought us here? How do we help Iranian citizens who are suffering? @smohyeddin.bsky.social joins me:
Canada has a Neo Nazi problem — but we actually just did something about one of them. A Canadian neo-nazi was just sentenced to 20 years in prison. As investigative journalist @petersmith.bsky.social helped me explain, this could be a big deal (and likely has other nazis shaking in their boots):
Lewis: “The prime minister is very popular at the moment. He’s a smart guy, and many Canadians still want to give him the benefit of the doubt. That’s fair.” “But I think when you connect the dots, his moves do not add up to the vision that Canadians truly want and deserve in this perilous moment.”
Did you know there’s a Liberal MP who supported the convoy, spread misinformation about vaccines and more? Well, Carney seems to trust Marilyn Gladu to betray many of the things she previously claimed to believe — but do Canadians? Well, I got some clips together. Here’s Marilyn, in her own words:
The reporter follows up by asking Carney: “do you regret your initial support of this war?” The point of this support, Carney replied, was “the ending of both that state sponsored terrorism and the nuclear ambitions of Iran.” “That remains the case.”
I spoke to the Trudeau-era environment minister who resigned from cabinet under Carney. Steven Guilbeault has a warning about Carney’s latest environment-trampling proposals — ones he agrees would be worse than Harper’s. Here’s the latest on the plan that would “eviscerate” environmental laws:
Whenever I want to check in on the state of Canadian democracy, I look at its weakest link: the Alberta government. And folks, it’s not looking great. You know the Don’t Say Gay stuff we’re used to seeing in the the United States? It looks like something similar is coming to Alberta schools.
The rise of far-right authoritarianism just got kicked in the nads. Hard. Viktor Orbán, a puppet master of the rise of the far-right, just lost the election in Hungary. Everyone who cares about the rise of the far right should care about this — but shouldn’t get complacent. Here’s why:
A CANADIAN Trump critic is suing the U.S. administration to stop them from getting his personal data from Google. After the user posted criticism about federal agents killing protesters, DHS asked Google for his associated names, addresses, phone numbers, credit card and bank information. Yikes:

For Taichung I went to see the "Rainbow Village", a series of houses painted by late Huang Yung-Fu, born 1924. He was from Guandong, a soldier with the republican government, and arrived to Taiwan during the retreat. The housing was the camp for such refugees as him, turned permanent residency.
