When I first arrived in Canada in 2005, I landed in Calgary. My introduction to Canada was wonderful because of beautiful, kind Albertans (my wife the best of all!) It saddens me to see a few people in the province seeding division. But I’m sure, Albertans will vote to stay! Go out to vote!!!

Total private construction is about $1.6 TRILLION per year. Total data center construction is about $50 BILLION. So data centers are ~3% of all construction. There's no real crowding out here. Comparing total spending change from such RADICALLY different baserates tells us almost nothing.

I'm reminded of one of my favorite passages in Banerjee and Duflo's "Good Economics for Hard Times". "The goal of social policy, in these times of change and anxiety, is to help people absorb the shocks that affect them without allowing those shocks to affect their sense of themselves.."

Corporate emissions accounting is a morass of vested interests and obscure technical loopholes you could drive a cybertruck through. Not a sound foundation for serious climate policy. See also "green" hydrogen.
