Solidarity North Island - qathet posted this on their FB group, so we're re-posting since they are not on Bsky. Is an A.I. data centre being planned for in #qathet #powellriver ? It's sure starting to look like it! What we need to do to make sure we don't become another casualty of the tech bros.

We screened @ghostdoc2026.bsky.social a documentary about the messed up history of A.I. and it's incredible. So many thinkers, researchers, philosophers and activists interviewed in this film, it's mind blowing. Including a @parismarx.com making an appearance. Here's our key takeaways (thread):

Two new facts stand out: 1. 85% of hallucinated citations in preprints are also in the subsequent journal version (thanks, peer review!) 2. Fake cites more likely to use the names of (male) scholars who are already highly cited, creating a fake-citation Matthew effect. arxiv.org/abs/2605.07723

We get to see first hand how creeping fascism has taken over the U.S. We are not immune. How do we prevent it from happening here? Organizing in every community is the answer. Learning, planning and building. #qathet We have to build our collective empathy muscle and fight back against hate.

January 4th @ 2pm. Director Neil Vokey will be in attendance.

Poster of the screening at the Patricia Theatre of Goodwin's Way, January 4th, 2025. Doors open at 2pm.

Synopsis of the film Goodwin's Way

When highway signs commemorating folk hero Ginger Goodwin disappear, the documentary Goodwin’s Way finds the nearby Cumberland, B.C. at a crossroads with its history.

Goodwin, a rebellious labour activist, was slain by police under mysterious circumstances almost a century ago, yet his name still elicits wounds that date back to the town’s coal mining past.

Residents weave an oral tapestry of fact and legend – some remember Goodwin as a criminal, while many others admire the ideals of equality and dignity he fought for. Those ideals have long been overshadowed by Cumberland’s dependency on a resource economy, which are chronicled from boom times to bust.

Now, as young families set their sights on building a sustainable generation, a new proposal for a coal mine threatens to make history repeat itself. Amidst an effort to oppose the project, residents young and old reconnect with Ginger Goodwin’s legacy – his ‘way’.

Goodwin’s Way straddles the dividing line between historical and current-event documentary genres to tell the story of a community fighting for autonomy over its past, and its future.
