Rather than regulating the toxic business practices of social media companies, the bill effectively makes those companies the collectors of personal information. A privacy nightmare in the making. #cdnpoli
What's driving Canada's AI data centre boom? Internal gov docs show that it's the opportunity to "provide markets to Canadian energy"
What energy is supplying these projects? Gas of course!
Read @geoffdembicki.bsky.social and @jenstden.bsky.social 's piece below:

Canada's fossil fuels aren't clean, although oil shills lie to us that it is. Peer reviewed research: 46 countries produce oil with a lower per barrel carbon footprint than Canada. Only 3 are worse.
We're 47th cleanest out of the top 50 producers. 2/

Important reminder that polling results alone aren't going to change the world. [Capitalist] governments don't do something just because the majority of people want it, we have to force them to listen to our demands. It's on us to turn popular support into popular power. #CDNPoli #ABPoli #ABLeg
Inflating natural gas demand (and therefore gas company profits) is also the reason that Danielle Smith is pushing AI data centres in Alberta. See her quote in the legislature below AND a segment from Smith's "Mature Asset Strategy." #ABLeg #ABPoli #CDNPoli
Damn. Sorry to hear you're going through this.
"Six in 10 Albertans don’t want taxpayer money to support a new oil pipeline, and two-thirds say their province’s economy is too dependent on oil and gas, according to new polling released this morning by the Pembina Institute." www.theenergymix.com/breaking-61-... @theenergymix.com #ABLeg #CDNPoli
I think they get it, they just don't care because we (ordinary people) don't realize we have to wield our power against them if we want our demands met.
