When we ask the government to stand up to corporations, we shouldn’t be worried that they’ve got a profit motive to look the other way. But that’s exactly what the BC NDP is allowing. Meet your AI minister, Rick Glumac.

@emilylowan I didn't know this chair existed until earlier today when I walked past the Leg on the way to the museum. Such a strange coincidence.

Also, we don't need an AI minister. We need a tax-the-billionaires minister, and a protect-british-columbians-from-foreign-interference minister, and maybe a pivot-away-from-resource-extraction-toward-higher-profit-activities minister.

@emilylowan (if the "AI Minister" role is intended to handle that last item in my list, then I think it's very poorly named.)
