Two months ago, when @AOC and I proposed an AI data center moratorium, we were called “Luddites.” Now New York is on the verge of passing a moratorium and dozens of localities are doing the same. People understand: AI must work for all, not just oligarchs.

Taxing 50% of AI companies' stock to ensure that AI benefits humanity isn't radical, but let me tell you what is: Since Trump was elected, the 7 richest men in America, all Big Tech oligarchs, became $1.15 trillion richer while 60% live paycheck to paycheck. That's radical.

Canada condemns the Israeli government’s failure to prevent the rapidly deteriorating humanitarian disaster in Gaza. Israel’s control of aid distribution must be replaced by comprehensive provision of humanitarian assistance led by international organizations. Many of these are holding significant Canadian-funded aid which has been blocked from delivery to starving civilians. This denial of humanitarian aid is a violation of international law. Canada calls on all sides to negotiate an immediate ceasefire in good faith. We reiterate our calls for Hamas to immediately release all the hostages, and for the Israeli government to respect the territorial integrity of the West Bank and Gaza.   Canada supports a two-state solution which guarantees peace and security for Israelis and Palestinians. Canada will work intensively in all fora to further that end, including through the participation of the Minister of Foreign Affairs at the UN High-Level Conference on a Two-State Solution in New York next week.

Ontario taxpayers will fund 2,500 parking spots for the spa and other attractions at a redeveloped Ontario Place — 700 spots more than required under the province’s newly revealed 95-year lease with Therme. trib.al/dTFa9Wk

New laws and rules coming to Ontario next month - including giving $225 Million to the privately owned Beer Store. Sounds like another move to screw over Ontario by our overlord gang leader Drug Fraud. blogto.com/city/2024/08/new-…
