Under a #police chief who seeks advice from #Israel's #IDF for #policing in the capital of an increasingly #authoritarian #Canadian province, it is not surprising that #Canada's first #AI facial recognition bodycam pilot is underway with #surveillance technology owned in part by #IDU kingpin Stephen Harper. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/edmonton-police-emails-documents-provide-new-information-on-canada-first-ai-facial-recognition-bodycam-pilot-9.7157991?__vfz=medium%3Dsharebar

Edmonton police emails, documents provide new information on Canada-first AI facial recognition bodycam pilot | CBC News

Key details include a “critical fault” system outage, possible extension of pilot project and that facial recognition model was supplied by Corsight AI, a company whose technology has reportedly been used for mass surveillance in Gaza.

🧵 The Global Right's Campaign for Orbán

1/ U.S. VP JD Vance and former Canadian PM Stephen Harper are meddling in Hungary's elections. 🇭🇺

The goal? Prop up Viktor Orbán's 16-year grip on power through the IDU.

@hope_n_beauty @NaMi Natürlich merken sie das. Sie hoffen nur darauf, dass Du es nicht merkst.

Denn der Kulturkampf ist derselbe, es ist auch nicht der von #MAGA sondern der von #IDU - MAGA ist da nur die amerikanische Ausprägung, der rechte Schmuddelrand der CDU die deutsche.

Und selbst #Merz und seine Junta merken natürlich, dass dieser Faschismus - als Endstufe seines radikalisierten Konservatismus, das weiß auch er - hier nur so semidoll ankommt.

I think the important counter to this is to ensure people are reminded of the reality of the Stephen Harper years, including the selling off of the Canada Wheat Board to the Saudis, the gifting of our Nuclear Reactors to SNC Lavalin, the Barbaric Cultural Practices snitch-line, and the many other examples I’m sure people will provide in the comments.

As well we need to shine a spotlight on what ol’ Steve has been up to with his work chairing the #IDU, working with far-right leader like Orban, etc.

I’ve been thinking a lot about this resurrection of Herr Harper and what the game is; it feels like an attempt to launder the image of the Conservative Party (call it ‘right-washing’) and an effort to distance themselves from the MAGA shitshow down south.

They’re smelling it on the wind that Canadian conservatives (the moderate ones) are losing their stomach for US culture-war style politics and with the trade war strangling the economy & Orange Julius’ annexation threats rallying Canadians, The Party is looking for a different path forward.

As gross is it is, there are likely a whole bunch of Conservative voters who view the Harper years with a sense of nostalgia, and long for a return to the ‘greatness’ of that period.

Enter Carney, who worked FOR Harper as the Governor of the bank of Canada, and who has basically appropriated most of the Conservative’s fiscal policies.

Resurfacing Harper—completely overlooking what he’s been up to with the #IDU—linking him to Carney and then getting his padawan Poilievre to call for the two parties to ‘work together’ seems like an effort to make PP more palatable to Conservatives who are souring on the Trump train-wreck.
