Manifestation contre l’agrandissement du stade au Parc Jarry et un projet pas très réfléchi de Tennis Canada (qui veut empiéter sur le parc et les espaces verts au lieu de considérer un scénario sur deux sites) : lp.ca/sjq2iv?shari...

Le parc Jarry est un bien commun, pas une réserve foncière
Le droit à la nature n’est pas négociable. Les grands stades vieillissent. Les grands parcs traversent les siècles.

AI will help this startup speed up medical diagnoses and treatment plans, and improve the patient experience, by actually reducing access to trained medical personnel and increasing the number of patients per doctor four- to five-fold. Is there any limit to naïve techno-enthusiasm, I wonder?

Canadian voters or people following the Canadian election, is there any good blog/website to consult pools and projections for the upcoming election? I remember using tooclosetocall.ca in previous elections, but it is not updated anymore.

The White House said Russia escaped tariffs because sanctions preclude "meaningful trade". But Russia actually sent $3bn of goods to America in 2024, more than many other states hit with duties. Its $2.5bn trade surplus would have meant a 40% tariff rate. www.economist.com/finance-and-...

Unsurprising (for lack of a better word) study on people's opinion about the friendliness of the US, Canada and Europe. What is perhaps surprising is how much supporters of hard-right parties in Europe became more favorable to the US since November 2024.

I lack some of the background to fully understand this story. But the firing of @rachelgilmore.bsky.social suggests CTV News is simply bowing to conservative push back. I am not sure how the the news outlet will fact-check this story if it fires all of its fact-checkers.
