entire piece sounded like "sponsored by Liberal Party of Canada"... RTO mandate is idiotic as issue of "under-performance" is largely a management issue and not an employee issue. In other words it's a free admission that management is clueless and has no idea how to harness remote to it's full potential.

they will be integrating it on service side if I read it correctly so the choice of client would be non-important

I'm confused: why do we have an issue of AI bots crawling internet practically DOS'ing sites? Even if there's a feed of synthesized data it is apparent that contents of internet sites plays role too. So backfeeding AI slop to AI sounds real to me.

in response to all "it's just practical" posts: politics is not about practical (esp. in PP's case) but about optics and gestures. Politician who wants to project integrity and confidence would make it known that they will not be using the place that doesn't belong to them until such time that it becomes OK again. There needs not to be a "move" even, but the gesture of not utilizing residence could go a long way. Alternative is a projection of entitlement and arrogance.

Consider this: if you're working for corporation and reside in corporation-sponsored residence, you'd be expected to vacate the place within rather short timeframe despite the fact that you've supplied your resume to HR for position that just opened. And considering that PP views are very corporate I see disconnect with rhetoric.

From recent article detailing POTUS47 silent attack on educational institutions by simply going "radio silent" on paperwork front I can't help but draw parallels. With Patel's stated mission of dismantling FBI I wouldn't be surprised he follows the same playbook, but this time making Dems choke finances for FBI for the lack of budget

Art of the deal: deal with it... 'cause I don't care

Funny that Conservatives more likely to claim misinformation, exactly the group most frequently (as of recent) subjected to incredible amount of misinformation (mainly from their own leaders). Unfortunately poll doesn't disclose what kind of disinformation did they perceive.

To be fair, Western provinces cannot really outbid QC+ON combo in both chambers. While Parliament represents provinces based o population, I think Senate should've been an equal representation from each province balancing out inherent inequality of Parliament... It's not unprecedented for PM to appoint "extra" senators to represent West so Carney can do that to help things along.

sensationalism swings both ways: both right and left. 25% is a sizeable number and we kind of know the source of it: Western Alienation coupled with dysfunctional electoral system (FPP) it breeds disenfranchisement. Also to note 60% voter turnout with 52% of it going to UPC ends up being around 30%... in other words that's pretty much UCP base. And UCP is busy fostering Western Alienation because it's easier than actually try and tackle it. Persistently Insulting your opponent is not a way to maintain dialogue yet this is all UCP was doing for the last 6yrs. They ran province for 50yrs, sat on pile of cash, threw it out the window with billions mysteriously disappearing from budget and they cry a river about inequality and use Wexit as a stick hoping to scare Fed. People are pissed because province was turned into one-trick pony that is strapped to volatile oil prices and they are legit scared for their livelihood. UCP dismissed any proposals or offers to retrain existing workforce to soften the transition, instead they chose to double down on Alienation and Oil. What I'm saying is - Feds reached out with money and offers to help, UCP either neglected or outright declined to use that money, because it wrecks narrative where everything is Feds fault (if Feds are not Cons, but if they are, it's previous Fed fault). So, UCP is keeping average Albertan hostage to their "game of politics" while keeping folks enraged and sucked deep into vortex of falsehoods and very few in their electorate want to hear otherwise. Reality disconnect is too painful to admit so it's best to keep living this rage dream.

that tactic is called "racheting" and was polished south of the border. By using racheting right keeps racheting things up while left usually falters and finds itself pulled stronger towards the right. In other words Carney's capitulation today may sound like conciliatory compromise but watch Conservatives soon upping the ante and demanding more aggressive measures from their playbook. So both parties will keep on drifting to the right and now we have nobody to pull thingz to the left. NDP is no more, BQ won't act on behalf of the rest of Canada... without being part of US, US-style political system is here today, with two parties that barely differ from each other and throw a show every election to make populous think they actually elect someone and they do participate in governance.

she has shown that she is not progressive and more of a "status quo" politician. She'll get support from DNC and none from voters. Get ready for orange 2028
