Montreal police might start wearing body cameras within the next year, but the public will likely never see the recordings. What’s the point? Surveillance, critics say. zurl.co/fc1ej

But yeah, women absolutely need to use AI more, so they can be resoundingly punished for it. Thanks, experts.
All of those pearl clutching articles over the last 3 years about how women had to use AI or they'd be left behind at work and OF COURSE when people think women used AI they punish them for it. OF COURSE.

Canadian-operated gold mines in the Dominican Republic and Haiti are facing growing opposition from local communities who say their water, health, and livelihoods have been harmed by years of extractive operations. This week, community leaders will bring their concerns directly to Ottawa.

I feel we were deprived of many other Walter Koenig roles. As a villain he could be chilling, sardonic, and calculating. As a real-life human, he had a wonderful sense of humour and a humble bearing. His cheeky tweet a few years back ahead of a con shows he was keenly aware of his own mortality.

I'm going to vote for my incumbent city councillor today. Even though I've disagreed with some of his positions, he remains the only councillor who supports a tax increase to fund the services he's campaigning for (transit/infrastructure). Everyone else is just lying.
All politicians who worship at the altar of low taxes are fundamentally unserious people.
