My fellow Canadians. This is your reminder to do the census. It takes like maybe 10 minutes online. It helps with everything from funding to voting ridings boundary decisions in the future. You are actually shooting yourself in the foot by not doing this.#census #canada #canpoli

2). It's amazing how the CBC has reported this. They focused exclusively on the second paragraph and completely ignored what he stated as his prime goal in the first paragraph.

Le gouvernement « va plus loin » que prévu, selon Chantal HébertLe gouvernement de Mark Carney « va plus loin que ce que la plupart des observateurs attendaient » avec sa réforme réglementaire visant à accélérer le processus d’approbation des grands projets, selon Chantale Hébert.https://ici.radio-canada.ca/info/videos/1-10663101/gouvernement-va-plus-loin-que-prevu-selon-chantal-hebert#MarkCarney #Canada #PolCan #CanPoli

As an anglophone, I'd have been fine with a bilingual governor-general who spoke fluent French and Inuktitut and was just learning English."Bilingual" doesn't apply only to European languages. Inuktitut and other Indigenous languages have a much longer history here than French or English. 🫤#CanPoli #language #colonialism #colonialisme

@Sanderde unfortunately headlines rule the day. And this one sucks for Canada.

How can this be a 2026 headline? Making the planet uninhabitable for humans is the goal? #nspoli #canpoli #cdnpoli #leaveitintheground https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/nova-scotia-natural-resources-oil-and-gas-9.7193277

@thetyee “Australian government to pay AU$475 million in compensation to victims.The Australian government’s ill-fated, costly experiment with this algorithmic decision-making and the Canadian cases hold significant lessons on the consequences of turning to algorithms to operate and manage public services while cutting back on frontline public servants.”AI in Canada, will cost how muck?

Prime Minister Mark Carney appears to be backing away from Ottawa’s commitment to ban open-net salmon farming in coastal B.C. in 2029. Sarah Cox reports. #canpoli https://thetyee.ca/News/2026/05/08/Feds-BC-Salmon-Farm-Ban/?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=editorial

Organic farming, who needs it? Ottawa thinks no one. Well farmers whose fertilizer is stuck beyond the Strait of Hormuz, maybe.... #environment #canpoli #cdnpoli #farming #fertilizer #organicfoods https://www.nationalobserver.com/2026/05/08/news/ottawa-agriculture-committee-research-farm-safety

@Cassandra @jerome Yeah. There's some more details here:https://www.ipolitics.ca/2026/05/06/idlout-says-shes-moving-towards-supporting-the-liberal-governments-position-on-s-2/The desired time delay and the claimed jurisdictional issues (by the Liberals) are countered by a lawyer named Ryan Beaton in the article. Further, I don't see any rationale for the second-generation cutoff. I feel the government's claimed jurisdictional issues (if in fact that is a thing, considering Beaton's counter argument) would theoretically apply regardless of whether there was a two generation cut off or not.

Be afraid and resist. “That said, this investigation has shone a light on one of the biggest challenges to privacy protection in history. Technology has been moving so quickly, in particular in regard to AI, that personal information is being collected in ways that were not even contemplated when our privacy laws were written.”"McLeod was unveiling the findings of the probe alongside her counterparts from Quebec and British Columbia, along with the office of the federal privacy commissioner. The four watchdogs launched an investigation into OpenAI’s privacy practices in 2023, following a complaint — which was not disclosed — that alleged that the company collected and used personal information without consent."#canpoli https://www.thestar.com/politics/federal/chatgpt-collected-vast-amounts-of-canadians-data-without-consent-privacy-commissioners-say/article_8bcc9e31-0177-4425-ab84-4c6a1ddb86cf.html
