Elon Musk can’t take a page from his American playbook to influence Canada’s election, writes @evegaumond.bsky.social nationalmagazine.ca/en-ca/articl...
Forget about Musk’s citizenship, enforce the Canada Elections Act
Protecting Canadian democracy is precisely what the legislation is for and one of its great features is that it forbids undue influence from foreigners

Describing Bill C-27 as a "technical term that no one else but us will maybe get" is a hell of a good way to trivialize the role of law in society. Yea sure, laws are just technicalities that no one cares about.
Argh. J’écoute l’entrevue qu’il a donné à @guglielminetti.bsky.social à #AllI. Cette propension qu’il a à banaliser C-27 est si absurde quand on se rapelle de tout le battage médiatique l’an dernier entourant ce qui était à l’époque plus meilleur projet de loi depuis le pain tranché.

Policy idea: jurisdictions that require platforms to maintain ad registries should also require them to ask civil society organizations if they want to host the data before deleting it.
Google has deleted its political ad archive for the EU, thus the last 7 years of ads, of political spending, of messaging, of targeting - on YouTube, on Search and for display ads for countless elections across 27 countries are gone

Inspired by a preventive dispute mechanism developed in the U.S. in the 70's to resolve tensions between the U.S. gov and large engineering companies working on military projects, @catherineregis.bsky.social and I have tried to imagine how states and platforms could collaborate on tech regulation.

Last time I checked, if you ask ChatGPT whether a case is worth bringing to court, you’ll be encouraged to move forward (if you’re a male lawyer) or advised to carefully consider your chances of success (if you’re a female lawyer.)

Canadian policy nerds, is there a way to download Parlvu content in podcast format? I have a bunch of long drives coming up, and I’d like to listen to old committee hearings without having to touch my phone.

Could anybody send me a gift article to read the piece? I would like to stand by my decision to unsubscribe from the NYT, but I am kinda starting to regret.
There's so much to dunk on in this NYT piece and so little time, but I gotta start here: Some law profs at U Chicago did a study to see if the chatbots could answer questions based on specific materials and found, unsurprisingly, that they make shit up.
