For farmers, data is the hottest new commodity as digital agriculture hits Canadian fieldsEarly agricultural tech adopters are paving the way for a boost in crop productivity. But for many, accessing the benefits of predictive technology feels still on the horizonwww.theglobeandmail.com

A federal obj should have preceded the buildout of Cdn data centres to use renewables, closed water systems, & to fund innovation in chips which would draw less power. In other words, the greening of any data centre infrastructure. @liberal_party www.theglobeandmail.com/business/com...

I’m sorry, sir @mark-carney.bsky.social - but I no longer believe you.
