I’m going to keep on saying this, just so later I can have the utterly joyless experience of being right.
Carney will usher us into tech totalitarianism if we do nothing. He is in bed with the oligarchs, and will try to execute their world-destroying vision.
@mumshoes.bsky.social:
Unconscionable
@stevenalleyn.ca:
PIPEDA simply doesn’t allow that kind of access in Canada and I’m not sure what legitimate business purpose would allow that law to be waived
Haven’t you been paying attention? Carney is a conservative, he doesn’t give a shit about the law or our rights. FFS. The evil Nazi tech bros are drooling for all our private data. They are Carney’s master, along with oil and gas fuckers. Only way to prevent the privacy violations, is not to get any health care and soon, get rid of all smart devices and get off the Internet. Carney’s laws give the Nazis everything, and Canadians nothing. Watch the clip below
@cbcwatcher:
Jim Jordan’s House Judiciary Committee — the same one that exposed & helped dismantle Mark Carney’s GFANZ climate cartel for antitrust collusion… is now zeroing in on Carney’s Bill C-22
This isn’t just a Canadian privacy nightmare. It’s a direct threat to American trade, tech, and security
Why? Because Carney’s ‘Lawful Access Act’ would force companies (including US Big Tech operating in Canada – including X) to build backdoors, retain massive user metadata, and hand it over more easily to government. Undermines encryption. Chills investment. Creates divergent standards that fragment the internet and raise compliance costs for American firms.
Canadians know America doesn’t need its closest trading partner turning into a surveillance state that scares off innovation and forces US companies into impossible compliance choices. Free societies don’t mandate spyware on apps and devices. Leave that to China
Jordan is right to treat this as a trade & competition issue. Canada: Kill C-22. Protect privacy, property rights, and cross-border commerce @JudiciaryGOP
@Jim_Jordan
(h/t @mgeist — link to letter in reply)
That mass surveillance Carney is trying to force in on us, is why the massive push for fucking polluting, drive up energy and water prices for ordinary Canadians, noisy, invasive, health harming, water destroying AI data centres everywhere, paid for by us to be abused by the tech bros all to be spied on. Fuck that.
@discordantmuse.bsky.social:
You don’t think Carney wants to “streamline” anymore government institutions?
@stevenalleyn.ca:
I don’t really see him scrapping a key privacy law to give a particular company access to everyone’s medical records, even if he could whip the party. Though he is a fucking Tory so I’m not as confident as I’d like to be
@discordantmuse.bsky.social:
He’s a techbro first, leader second in my opinion.
I’m definitely not confident that he won’t fuck with our digital identies.
@sustainablesong.bsky.social:
If absolutely any of the Carney government’s major policies were tabled by a Conservative Party of Canada federal government, there’d be riots in the streets. Instead, out of complacent critical-thinking-free lazy political tribalism, millions of Canadians cheer on colossal harms from our PMO.

He told ChatGPT he was a nazi Incel who wanted to die, then asked how many people you’d have to shoot at his school to get on the news. ChatGPT helped him pick his ammo, pick his target, pick the best time for the massacre, and then told him how to use the gun. Then he did.

BC is already in a drought! This is stupid and the minister is a fucking moron
It’s inhumane humans like Trump, Danielle Smith, Harper and his Carney that’ll ensure human life on earth ends, soon.
Telus, lies, a lot, like Carney. Vancouver is already short of water for human use in the city, and it’s a huge city. What will Vancouverites use to bathe? Used frac sand?
Vancouver is running out of water – and the solutions are wild May 2026
AI “closed loop” systems use deadly PFAS chemicals, and must often dump their closed loop shit. Where will Telus and Carney dump it? I expect into the sewer system where the PFAS and other toxic shit will sicken many with cancers, and other horrific harms. Or, perhaps they’ll offer it to the city to use as their potable water runs out.
BC Hydro no longer produces renewable energy – site C damn made sure of that. Regardless, the AI idiocy will drive up electricity prices to unaffordable levels for all ordinary citizens. And, Telus will not want to pay the high prices of that “renewable” electricity, so I bet Carney plans to give them free frac’d natural gas to power their lying shit.
I am sure Telus and Carney will not want to spend any money building ways to share the AI’s waste heat, it’ll be spewed into the air roasting many residents dead.
Telus AI will use surplus rain? Under extreme climate change chaos we horrid humans create with out a fucking care in the world, pumping out more and more babies, and more and more toxic pollution every fucking minute causing in extreme drought? They’re just lying to make this fucking abusing polluting useless brain rotting academia dissolving stupid stolen lying kid-murdering error laden insane AI palatable to communities where data centres are being forced in, even in communities where everyone says NO, and everyone hates AI.
@carolkroeger.bsky.social:
FWIW the article states that 98% of data centres’ energy use will be from renewable sources.
Water use will be an issue though.
Plan unveiled for ‘sovereign AI data centre’ cluster in Kamloops, Vancouver, Government, Telus tout facilities’ green features, but critics say plan is rushed by Simon Little, CBC News, May 11, 2026
Vancouver and Kamloops will be home to a new data centre cluster under a planned partnership announced by the federal government and Telus.
Speaking in Vancouver on Monday, AI Minister Evan Solomon said the project would expand Canada’s “sovereign compute capacity” while helping domestic commercial and academic interests to compete in the global AI economy.
The proposal involves expanding Telus’s existing Kamloops facility and constructing two new data centres in Vancouver through Ottawa’s Enabling large-scale sovereign AI data centres initiative.
“We are taking concrete action toNOT serve Canadians, while serving billionaire Nazis to build sovereign AI capacity here in Canada, so Canadian innovators, researchers and businesses will go bankrupt after AI destroys our fast vanishing water, and polluters us into early graves have access to the compute they need, while keeping Canadian data, intellectual property and economic advantage on Canadian soil,” Solomon said.You fucking liar. This shit will destroy Canadian communities, businesses, and water, air, land and public health. It serves American fucking Nazi billionaires, not Canadians, and Telus serves shit everywhere it operates.
Telus says the Kamloops project and the first Vancouver project, located at the former Hootsuite headquarters in Mount Pleasant, will come online later this year. A second facility at 150 West Georgia Street is planned for 2029.
The project will begin with an 85 megawatt power draw, scaling up to 150 megawatts by 2032.
WATCH | Federal government partners with Telus on B.C. data centre projects:
Telus president and CEO Darren Entwistle touted the project as a green initiative.!!!!!!!!!!! There is nothing green about AI. It’s toxic and polluting as Alberta’s tarsands. Carney will likely wave around Carbon Capture lies to clean it up, but Carbon Capture polluters more than it greens up.
According to Telus, the facilities will run on 98 per cent clean hydro power will drive everyone’s power prices through the roof, and Telus will not want to pay for that, so will beg Carney, and get, free fra c’d natural gas and recycle enough waste energy to heat 150,000 homes.That sounds like a frac lie. And what about spring, summer and fall? What about climate change making cities hotter and hotter with residents dying in heat domes? Telus says the projects will also use 90 per cent less water than a traditional data centre, and that it is working on plans to incorporate recycled water from B.C. Place stadium.Oh, that sounds like another doozy lie. Closed loop systems for AI use PFAS, FFS, and must dump that loopie shit regularly. Will BC Place Stadium take that toxic waste too to serve to their customers?
“We are sending a clear message to the world: Canada will lead the AI revolution with uncompromising technological power and unparalleled climate leadership,” Entwistle said.You fucking liar. Canada is a polluter’s and a rapist’s dream, under Carney now more so than ever. Canada, notably via idiot Solomon and Nazi Harper Carney, is showing the world we are toxic life destroying idiots.
The project has the backing of the B.C. government, which rolled out its own AI data centre power policy in January.
The B.C. policy requires companies to compete for a tranche of electricity capped at 400 megawatts for the next two years, with preference for projects that provide data sovereignty, environmental benefits and First Nations participation.With AI, it’s impossible to produce anything but lies, mass murder, and extreme pollution.
“I think everyone knows the conversation about data centres is happening everywhere, some good and some challengingand most of it down right fucking evil, hello nightmare Palantir and Cohere,” Jobs and Economic Growth Minister Ravi Kahlon said.
“What you’ve proposed here today, I think you are a beacon of hope for all communities that understand that we need this compute power, but they want to see it be done in a thoughtful and ethical and environmentally friendly way.”Pure shit. If any thought went into Ai, no one would do it and no country would allow it to invade anywhere. AI is evil, it’s Nazi, racist, misogynistic on a level that would make the catholic kid raping church blush, unethical in every way, and an enemy to the environment and life.
The City of Vancouver is also throwing its support behind the proposal, with Mayor Ken Sim calling the data centres “world-class facilities.”JFC, you idiot
‘Build-first regulate-later model’
While the new proposal won high praise from political leaders gathered in Vancouver on Monday, the prospect of new data centres in B.C. has already proven divisive.Politicians are for the most part, incredibly stupid and evil, notably in Alberta. The people are much wiser, except in rural Alberta, where they are even more stupid and evil than politicos.
Plans to build a new facility in Nanaimo have sparked local pushback, with opponents warning it will churn through tens of thousands of litres of water per day.
B.C. Green Party Leader Emily Lowan accused lawmakers of using a “build-first regulate-later model,” and said she wants a moratorium on new data centres in the province until stronger regulation and environmental policies are in place.Fuck that frac shit. Regulations and enviro policies will helping nothing, AI Nazis are the worst humans on earth at the moment – Palantir and Harper’s company AWZ kills kids for Israel. You think they’re going to heed regulations and polities? Frac’ers don’t, why would AI? Both must be fucking banned
WATCH | Electrical contractors push back on B.C. data centre limits:
B.C. electrical contractors say province will lose jobs by restricting AI data centres
February 24|
Duration 4:32 Critics of B.C.’s new competitive bid process for AI and data centres looking for electric grid access worry the extra step will drive away businesses and jobs. Matt MacInnis, the president of Electrical Contractors Association of B.C., said the province should offer more power to those companies.
“We’re seeing them override and bypass community concerns specifically about the drain on the fresh water supply. We’re seeing this in Nanaimo on the island as well,” she said.
“Local watershed groups in Kamloops as well are sounding the alarm on the acute drain this is going to have … they’re at great risk because they go through the worst of our drought cycle, extreme heat.”
Lowan said she was “incredibly skeptical” of Telus’s environmental claims about the proposed data centres.Telus lies like Carney
She said it’s hard to know what’s true when projects of this type are fast-tracked without comprehensive environmental impact studies.
“I hope that it starts a public conversation about the speed at which government acts on private interest projects over public interest,” she said.
“Why is it that an AI data centre can suddenly bypass environmental regulation, community consultation, and it still takes us a decade to build basic public transit?”Under Herr Hideous Carney, oil, gas, frac, and bitumen need not heed regs or the law either. AI is Nazi, that’s why it’s invading fast, everywhere globally. The fucking billionaire tech kid killers want to rule over the last of life on earth.
Concerns about data centre power and water use have become a flashpoint in communities across North America as tech companies seek to expand their operations to keep up with AI’s growing power need.
One 2023 study estimated that generating between 10 and 50 medium-sized responses with AI chatbot ChatGPT used half a litre of water, while a separate study by the International Energy Agency, estimated data centres used 140 billion litres of water globally just for cooling in 2023.It’s not just AI’s water use, after it’s used, it’s extremely toxic waste including PFAS, and gets dumped cheapest way possible – into the water shed and or sewers.

The data heat island effect: quantifying the impact of AI data centers in a warming world
March 2026
DOI:10.48550/arXiv.2603.20897
Abstract and Figures
The strong and continuous increase of AI-based services leads to the steady proliferation of AI data centres worldwide with the unavoidable escalation of their power consumption. It is unknown how this energy demand for computational purposes will impact the surrounding environment. Here, we focus our attention on the heat dissipation of AI hyperscalers. Taking advantage of land surface temperature measurements acquired by remote sensing platforms over the last decades, we are able to obtain a robust assessment of the temperature increase recorded in the areas surrounding AI data centres globally.
We estimate that the land surface temperature increases by 2°C on average after the start of operations of an AI data centre, inducing local microclimate zones, which we call the data heat island effect.
We assess the impact on the communities, quantifying that more than 340 million people could be affected by this temperature increase. Our results show that the data heat island effect could have a remarkable influence on communities and regional welfare in the future, hence becoming part of the conversation around environmentally sustainable AI worldwide.
Carney is the most evil Canadian politician I’ve seen in my lifetime, and he’s fucking religious, of course. Danielle Smith is also evil but not smart enough to be as evil as Carney

Ottawa, Telus announce large-scale AI data centre project in B.C. 2:15 Min. by The Canadian Press, May 11, 2026
The Canadian government has announced an artificial intelligence data-cluster project in B.C. aimed at boosting Canada’s computing and technology sovereignty. Federal AI Minister Evan Solomon made the announcement Monday at the headquarters of Vancouver-based telecom giant Telus, which is collaborating with Ottawa on the project. (May 11, 2026)
Telus is one of the worst companies in Canada. This will be a cluster fuck of a project. Why did they provide zero information in this clip, for example, where, how much of our money are they stealing, how big the cluster be, what will fuel it, how much will electricity/natural rates go up, where will the water come from, how many people do they expect to die and how soon from the pollution and noise? Nah, no need to provide details, kthey just spew wordy bullshit. That Solomon talks like a full garbage truck.
Government of Canada and TELUS advance work to build sovereign AI infrastructurethis also says nothing.

News release
This marks a significant step to bringing large-scale data centre capacity online
May 11, 2026 – Vancouver, British Columbia
Globally, industry and government alike are moving quickly to bring large-scale data centre capacity online. Access to cutting-edge compute infrastructure is crucial for maintaining Canada’s leadership in artificial intelligence (AI), empowering researchers and industries to thrive.
Today, the Honourable Evan Solomon, Minister of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Innovation and Minister responsible for the Federal Economic Development Agency for Southern Ontario, announced that the Government of Canada and TELUS are advancing work under the government’s Enabling large-scale sovereign AI data centres initiative.
As part of this work, the proposed large-scale AI data centre project in British Columbia would increase Canada’s sovereign compute capacity and support the broader domestic innovation ecosystem, including academia and industry.
In Budget 2025, the government indicated its intent to identify a limited number of large-scale sovereign commercial AI data centre projects and to engage with the most promising proposals through non-binding memoranda of understanding (MOU). The government will explore mechanisms that enable large‑scale commercial AI data centres to be built in Canada. This will provide additional compute capacity for the broader domestic innovation ecosystem.
AI is creating major economic opportunities across the country. Building the compute infrastructure behind AI is critical to helping Canadian businesses adopt new technologies, increase productivity, create good jobs and drive long-term economic growth. Canada is well positioned to attract AI infrastructure investment due to its geography, climate, sustainable energy sources and extensive network infrastructure. …
