  1. Some of the protesters outside a recent data centre developers conference in Calgary tell me their concerns.

    “..it’s not including new treatments, it’s not including new best practices, it’s not including stuff that’s, you know, culturally competent, because it’s taking 100 years of medical science and vomiting it into a new textbook, which isn’t accurate.”

  6. Well, this is a blockbuster of a document leak.

    So, the goal is more revenue for government coffers and too bad that Albertans will have to empty their wallets. Huh.

    Great work by The Narwhal bringing this to light!

  11. Greenview Reeve says council doesn’t have time to “spoonfeed” information to residents. The Greenview media relations team did not acknowledge or reply to my questions.

    It seems like there may be a transparency problem. But Paul Palandjian, CEO of O’Leary Digital says his company is committed to Canada’s new data centre principles at the same time as they’re taking new legal action to block a court case brought by Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation.

    And then there’s the 59-page purchase agreement that was so heavily redacted that only five pages could be viewed.

    Read the latest on Wonder Valley, the 9 GW proposed data centre planned for northern Alberta, as Minister Nate Glubish heads to Grande Prairie to face the community in the final data centre town hall this evening.

  16. #Texas Gov. #GregAbbott on #AIDataCenter Backlash: 'They Dug Their Own Grave'

    Jennifer Oliver O'Connell, August 23, 2026

    "#NewYork Gov. #KathyHochul (D) and #Kentucky Gov. #AndyBeshear (D) have pushed back against the expansion of #AIDataCenters in their respective states. But with the increasing backlash from communities and individuals toward new #datacenter construction and expansion, even governors that have embraced the #AIRevolution, like #Pennsylvania's #JoshShapiro (D), are now moderating and talking about scaling back.

    "Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) is one governor whose state has embraced the data center expansion. In November 2025, Abbott declared that Texas is the 'epicenter of AI development' in his announcement of #Google building three data center campuses to the tune of $40 million dollars.

    "Fast forward to August of 2026, and Abbott acknowledges that much of the community resistance to the construction of new and existing data centers is the fault of the AI companies."

    [...]

    "Abbott is not wrong. According to a report from #DataCenterWatch, 64 billion in data center projects have been blocked or delayed in #Arizona, #Utah, #Missouri, #Oregon, and #California, to name a few. Even formerly friendly #Virginia is pushing back. #CommunityOpposition surrounds the lack of information provided and the lack of accountability taken towards the citizens who will be most affected.

    "Water and power concerns loom large. Many of the newer development concepts, like entrepreneur #KevinOLeary 's 9 megawatt #StratosProject in #Utah, will have their own self-sustaining water and power systems. However, this did not prevent the backlash by #environmentalists and local activists to shut the Stratos Project down, and Utah state lawmakers ultimately backpedaled from their original approval and requested O'Leary cut the project's 400,000-acre footprint down to 10,000, about 75 percent.
