Palantir co-founder Peter Thiel wrote an essay titled “Competition Is for Losers.” His advice to founders? Build a monopoly.
So Palantir’s deal with Canada’s military was sole-sourced. Twelve quiet amendments took it from $14M to $63M.
Why is his company in our military? A UN Special Rapporteur accused it of profiting from the genocide in Gaza. It builds ICE’s deportation software, and its AI helps pick targets for US airstrikes.

A friend working on the federal by-election campaign for NDP candidate Tammy Dobyk-Jacquemart in Yorkton-Melville in #Saskatchewan asked me to post this on my various socials. The by-elections is on December 7th.
If you are anywhere in #Canada and can "buy the candidate a coffee", it would be much appreciated. You get a 75% federal political tax credit for up to the first $400.

These VIA Rail service cuts to communities like Cobourg and Port Hope are deplorable. While there is the need to still go forward with Alto high speed rail, it doesn't excuse VIA Rail from the need to improve existing service. #shame #cdnpoli www.thestar.com/news/gta/via...

Some good commentary from Avi Lewis on the budget.
However, I do notice that he's changed his tune when it comes to the housing aspect of the budget. Initially, from interviews (like on CBC's Power & Politics with David Cochrane), he mentioned that the housing initiative left out the needed surrounding supports, stating that many provinces with right wing governments may pass up on it due to that. He seems to have backed away from that line here. But, good that he promises to monitor the commitment as potentially a good start (it will take more money, IMO, and a commitment to public housing with supports).
I agree that giving money and tax breaks to rich corporations is a useless waste of money. Building up a strong and stable population with proper public infrastructure is the correct way to create a climate where businesses wish to invest to capture such a healthy market. Weakening public infrastructure will just increase the gap between the very rich and the rest of us even more.

Friday night, I was in Montreal to accept the 2026 Freedom of Expression Award from the Canadian Media Lawyers Association, in recognition of a lifetime of work fighting for freedom of speech, open courts and civil liberties as both a journalist and a Senator. It was a truly moving honour to receive - one I share with every colleague who supported me, every editor and publisher who had my back, my Senate colleagues and staff, and all the lawyers who advised, protected and inspired me. #yeg #yul #cdnpoli

I'm sorry - after writing stern letters and hiring lots of lawyers, this is the Carney government’s big move to save Stelco workers?
When was the last time the Competition Bureau brought the hammer down on a big corporation? Anyone?
Workers are under attack *right now*.
Nationalize Stelco, yesterday.

Heh, people often say “Alberta is the Texas of Canada” because they historically have nearly always elected nearly all Conservatives. It would be kinda nice if that analogy kept on holding…

“There were relationships between [the tech industry and fossil fuel industry] in the past, but now it’s just fully out in the open how simpatico their interests are, because more data centres means more fossil fuel demand.”
I spoke to DeSmog about Cohere’s plan to use AI to extract more fossil fuels.

I still usually choose CBC News Network. But yikes, it has become a mouthpiece of the Liberal government lately. Its story on AI data centres was an example of this. It spoke of how internationally people are rising up against this, saying the loss Republicans had in the US midterms could be partially due to Trump's support of such centres.
Then it mentioned that Carney is also pushing for these AI centres. At this point the CBC switched to its "expert". He blathered on about how this is a great opportunity for Canada to catch up to other nations. While other nations are stalled by their citizens protesting against such centres, Canada can build more of these wonderful data centres so we aren't "left behind", according to their "expert".
That's not journalism. That's just government propaganda.
Also, the idea of "CBC NN LIVE" is ridiculous. In the past hour I've seen this news story and a couple of others repeated a few times. Hardly "live".
Given how little respect the Liberals have for critical public infrastructure, I expect the CBC to be sold out in the next decade, along with our ports, highways, and universal healthcare.

@mehdirhasan Carney just released a Canadian $142 Billion budget to protect from US tariffs and shift to other markets - and it's working as all our aluminum went to the EU at a profit while the US pays deeply - and even if Dems hold Trump to account, we are never, ever, coming back - Vegas can die

CW: 🇨🇦 where's your CPP pension invested?
From Just Peace Advocates:
"This past month, the CPP Investment Board held 8 public meetings. Hundreds of ppl attended demanding answers on complicity in war crimes, genocide, & the climate crisis.
… CPPIB made it clear, they either had not read our report, … or were lying. Attendees even provided lists of specific companies, but CPPIB still refused to provide a clear answer. … ignorance, avoidance, or plain dishonesty?"

In my inbox, from Friends of Canadian Media:
"Carney budget tabled yesterday … included $300 million over two years for CBC/Radio-Canada and $134 million over four years for local journalism. It’s a real step forward, and we’ll keep pushing for permanent funding so CBC/Radio-Canada can plan for the long term."
