🇨🇦 Ottawa wants AI empires, locals get the power bill
The funniest part is the sudden media discovery that Canadians do not enjoy being turned into utility colonies for hyperscale AI. After years of regime cheerleading for every shiny globalist fad, we are now told communities are pushing back against giant data centres swallowing land, electricity and water while offering the usual elite fairy tale of innovation. As reported, resistance is going offline because normal people can still recognize a bad deal when Bay Street and Ottawa dress it up in futuristic jargon.
This is the Trudeau-era model in one frame: surrender planning, infrastructure and sovereignty to transnational capital, then sneer at residents who object. Canada cannot house its own population, cannot build enough power capacity, cannot keep services functioning, yet somehow there is always room for another grand project serving global networks instead of national needs. If an AI buildout means more strain on communities, more dependence on foreign tech giants and another top-down transformation nobody voted for, rejection is not backward. It is self-preservation.
