In the months to come, AI layoffs could trigger a populist backlash, warn @beamagistro.bsky.social, @sborwein.bsky.social, @rmichaelalvarez.bsky.social, @bartbonikowski.bsky.social, and Peter Loewen. How should policymakers respond to AI’s harmful effects on employment?

With the federal election approaching, I’m excited to share insights on how Canadians' vote intentions have shifted since 1945. This forthcoming CJPS paper, with @jacklucas.bsky.social, Dave Armstrong, and @eplusgg.bsky.social, features a public dataset, R package, and Shiny app—more details below!
