Facts matter. Here are a few on The Canadian Press: “It’s shareholders are Torstar Corp., the owners of the Toronto Star and many other Canadian publications and platforms; the Globe and Mail newspaper, through a related holding company; and Montreal’s La Presse, also through a

This is factually inaccurate. Canadian Press is owned by its member newspapers, not the CBC.

@KarmSumal @KenSimCity I’ve seen dozens of mayors in action as a journalist. The best like engaging with people every day and unify their city. Vancouver’s new mayor is doing that without virtue signalling.

The CP reporter asked a question. The politician fired back. It’s a daily battle, as it should be. By the way, on media there are many, many cases of multiple corrections on an article. There are even total retractions, as there should be. Media make mistakes. Reporters can

You might not like the press, but I guarantee you will not like it when they go. Do they f*ck up? Yes (although not clear in this case they have). Do they waste Q’s on stuff you’d rather not talk about? Sure. But adding to the mistrust is short-term gain for long-term pain

@globeandmail Well, forget about that. The leaders got a journalist — and real journalists ask controversial questions. Ms Kurl did her job.

@VivianBercovici I mean, is antisemitism new or just been latent. I honestly thought these forces were on decline. But there is an accelerant in society for hate.

We have fake news. Get ready for fake talent. Ai is a massive tool for the less talented to look like they have talent, using the corpus of the talented. Why is anyone even debating this? It can be regulated. And must be.

Canada tends to lionize left of center populists — Tommy Douglas. And demonize right of center populists — think Preston Manning. I got to interview both. The record shows they served their country well.

@nspector4 Q: Why do so many pundits default to characterizing PP as an angry populist? He just reflects the facts back to us. Not the lying spin that JT prefers. Should 🇨🇦 be happy about the economic reality? Do they like JTs social engineering and shaming? Recall how JT demonized Harper.

I am using AI language models frequently, to test what they do. I had two initial reactions when I started six months ago: First there was awe: The speed and logic of the AI will easily defeat most news writers I know. But I was initially optimistic. What I could still do to

The most serious threat AI poses to human existence is finally getting some attention. Sublime essay by John Gray in the New Statesman (I hope this is readable: it gives you 3 free pieces a month).
