Trump has put Poilievre in a difficult position, with polls showing that Canadians despise the US presidents while half of Conservative voters like what he's doing.

here’s my latest on how Minister Solomon can’t just be the Minister for AI Ribbon Cuttings, he needs to work with Minister Miller to ensure consumer facing AI products like chat bots are folded into online harms & subject to a duty to act responsibly www.nationalobserver.com/2026/02/25/o...

The demographic reality is unrelenting. What happens when you have 70 million baby boomers pushing 80 and still driving big SUVs on North American roads? A whole lot of accidents waiting to happen. lloydalter.substack.com/p/we-may-soo...

THE WINNER

Weavers push back!

This GOOD BOY ran onto the course during the Women’s Cross-Country Skiing Team Sprint event, crossing the finish line and being automatically recorded by OMEGA’s photofinish camera 😆

OpenAI ”acknowledged in its own research that LLMs will always produce hallucinations due to fundamental mathematical constraints that cannot be solved through better engineering, marking a significant admission from one of the AI industry’s leading companies.” You can’t trust chatbots.

“The Pentagon is pushing four leading AI labs to let the military use their tools for "all lawful purposes," … Anthropic insists that two areas remain off limits: the mass surveillance of Americans and fully autonomous weaponry.“

whoever runs on giving the entire ice budget to the muppet show gets my vote

News In Photo:

Canada did a consultation on a new national AI strategy, formed an expert task force to write 32 reports, then used AI to analyze the responses & reports. The result is a summary that strings together 100s of vague action items & flattens nuance and policy trade-offs into false consensus

At long last, we have created Democracy Dying in Darkness, from the classic Washington Post slogan "Democracy Dies in Darkness".

I don't think my parents had an alternate name for me, but the great-grandfather Charles I was named after was actually Chaskel short for Yechezkel which is equivalent to Ezekiel. So I could have been... Zeke?

Only 5 more days until the first Eglinton Crosstown shutdown.

This is EXACTLY what I'm seeing all over downtown. Sidewalks where 70-90% is plowed well, peppered with awful choke points that are completely impassable, sometimes made worse by pairs of little tire tracks.

RIP Catherine O’Hara, one of the absolute greats.

Catherine O’Hara wardrobe polaroids from Second City, 1983. RIP an absolute legend & icon💔

m.imdb.com/title/tt2799... This film I saw at Inside Out, Really Happy Someday, just dropped on Crave today. It's about a musical theatre performer who pauses their career to transition and has to relearn their voice. Excellent film, worth your time.

friend of mine is an undocumented immigrant and has been hiding in Melania theaters bc he knows people assume no one is in there

These fraught times call for a show with what is either an intentionally or unintentionally hilarious title, and which I will be talking about for the rest of the year

Nope. Son of Holocaust survivor. My father was 11 when the Nazis invaded his hometown in eastern Poland. He survived only by fleeing to a different city with a false baptismal certificate. The comparison is apt. Carry on.

"There’s an extremely hurtful narrative going around that my product, a revolutionary new technology that exists to scam the elderly and make you distrust anything you see online, is harmful to society."

stop using AI to do your research. it hallucinates too often. if you want an answer to something, post something arrogant on the appropriate subreddit. something like: "this item performs 10% better than everything else. only idiots deny this." this will bait nerds into doing your research for you.

The snow in downtown Toronto is one Bike Share deep.

Just logged on to IG and saw this, they’ve radicalized the equestrians

EMERGENCY DOG PICS to brighten the timeline

him having to pretend to love the show is very much that meme "put the pronouns back in the bio. woke is BACK"

Grok, the gas-powered deepfake-generating "anti-woke" chatbot that used to refer to itself as "MechaHitler," attracted a substantial investment from Canadians' pensions.

Today I learned something about Canada

*Homer Simpson voice*: The dumbest diplomatic crisis of your life *so far*

I was on this Neon Riders ride. The lesson we learned was, don't bother believing cops will ever help with violent drivers. We can even show the cops evidence. They will believe the driver and arrest the cyclists. This is how Toronto works and apparently the City has no power to change it.

Gary Larson: In my cartoon I invented Cow Tools as a cautionary tale Cows: At long last, we have created the Cow Tools from classic newspaper comic Cow Tools

Anyone claiming #StarfleetAcademy has no LGBTQ+ rep clearly missed any scene in which Holly Hunter uses a chair. #StarTrek #QueerTV #Bisexual

Everybody thinks 'https://' stands for 'hypertext transfer protocol secure' but it actually stands for 'head to this place, sucka' followed by a colon and two laser sounds

Big day for Rufus Wainwright! @rufus-wainwright.bsky.social His voice serenades Starfleet Academy AND he's on the Canada's Drag Race finale!

Really enjoyed episode 1 of Starfleet Academy tonight at TIFF Lightbox. Got some video of @robertpicardo.bsky.social talking about the show. Also present: Alex Kurtzman, Karim Diané, George Hawkins, Sandro Rosta and Zoë Steiner. #startrek #starfleetacademy

Renee Good's family said they have hired the same law firm that represented George Floyd's family to press for answers and accountability after the killing of the Minneapolis mother.

BIG FIGHT AT POLAND’S WROCLAW ZOO!!!

I'm glad to see this pressure on Google and Apple. If any other company was running an active CSAM generator in public you better believe it would have been removed from their app stores by now www.wired.com/story/x-grok...

This should be obvious now but DO NOT under any circumstances give your medical records to ChatGPT

In Canada, call or email Evan Solomon and demand he do his job as “Minister of AI and Digital innovation” to stop the CSAM and non-consensual porn. X should be banned in this country. 📞 416-972-2030 📧 [email protected]

Every second the murderer is not arrested is another second for feds to hide him in a place that would create a jurisdictional fight. He's on video killing a person. You have to arrest this guy an hour ago, but you might still have time now.

I sure would hate to be an oil-rich country whose sovereignty the US doesn't recognize within easy striking distance of US soil. That would be scary!

“Elbows up” means Canada standing up for the “rules-based international order” and publicly condemning violations of international law or arbitrary kidnappings of world leaders
