On the same day Trump announces that top tech firms have signed an accord to "self-police" their own AI development, we learned that OpenAI employees and security researchers were reportedly ignored when they brought safety concerns to the company's top executives. See the problem here?

OpenAI Ignored Employees’ Warnings About Safely Testing A.I. Models

Employees and security researchers said that they had cautioned the company on safely testing its A.I. models and strengthening its corporate infrastructure, but that OpenAI did not listen.

So Trump told reporters in the White House today that “Canada are going to come in and say, ‘Sir, we are sorry’…” Trump is managed to do something I didn’t think was possible — guarantee that Canadians will never say “sorry.”

This hasn’t made it to Bluesky yet but Mark Carney made a statement condemning the white supremacists who paraded around Kamloops on Sunday and targeted the Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc community with offensive messages

The cowardly act that took place at Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc yesterday is abhorrent. It has no place in this country. My thoughts are with everyone who is shaken and hurt by this disgusting display of hate.

This week, we will mark the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. It is a stark reminder of our shared responsibility to confront the devastating legacy of the residential school system and the consequences still felt today. Courageous Survivors shared the truth so that all Canadians could take up the work of reconciliation.

The rotting corpse of Canada's national magazine wrote up a glowing profile of the lying, conspiratorial grifter at the centre of the separatism campaign, and treated him like someone invested in democracy and who stands up for the marginalized. A complete and utter whitewash.

I hope Canadians understand that there are now and will be more foreign-based attempts to virally influence the Alberta separatism vote. Part of this effort will be to sow division within Canada. Non-Albertans attacking "Alberta(ns)" or Albertans attacking "Ottawa/Canada" is exactly what they want.
