New from me and @CappyMc: Canada’s new AI strategy includes a $500M growth fund to finance and take stakes in scaling AI firms, plus significant expansions of programs for adoption, commercialization, compute, and research Story with new $s and details: thelogic.co/news/exclusive…

@nickfrosst I’d have argued for Dineen too, but that’s more Toronto Finance Week

Hey! Today is my first day as Alberta correspondent for @the_logic. I'm still based in Calgary and still covering energy, especially pipelines and the majors, but also tech, data centres and the AI energy race. The Logic punches above its weight for business/tech coverage in Toronto & Ottawa. We're growing in Alberta too — and maybe bringing more Alberta to our Laurentian friends? Drop me a line. Introduce yourself. Story ideas, tips and regional grievances welcome [email protected]
New from me: German vice-chancellor Lars Klingbeil doesn't want AI's future "being determined exclusively by people like Elon Musk or Peter Thiel." Canada and Europe must cooperate on AI, and together create a major market for innovative firms, he said. thelogic.co/briefing/europ…
Scoop: Canada is providing Ford with $464.5 million in financing to overhaul its Oakville plant to make gas- and diesel-powered F-Series Super Duty trucks The award replaces an earlier deal to help convert the facility to EV production, which faltered thelogic.co/news/exclusive…

whenever you tell someone at a party you’re a journalist and they clamor to clarify that they’re “off the record” it’s like. you just told me a story about your cat throwing up after eating funfetti cake batter. should we call the new york times? should we invite bella hadid ?
@ddebow I always think of this one, which has photonic undertones youtube.com/watch?v=aUkR8Y…
New from me: AI Minister Evan Solomon had said Canada's new national AI strategy would come in the first quarter. It hasn't. The policy is "ready to go," with room for updates, he said today, attributing delays to world events and parliamentary business. thelogic.co/briefing/new-a…
New from me: Canadian software firm Thentia has been put up for sale after entering creditor protection. The search for a saviour comes as investors, lenders and executives fight in the courts over why the govtech startup faltered, and what to do next. thelogic.co/news/the-big-r…
@1vnzh Now you just need trucks or tanks for the trifecta
New from me: CPP Investments has invested in both Anthropic and Cohere, putting US$50 million into each of the AI firms' megarounds last year. The Canadian pension fund is the latest major investor to back competing modelmakers amid the AI boom. thelogic.co/briefing/cpp-i…
New from me: Y Combinator said it will resume investing in Canadian-incorporated firms, walking back a recent change after feedback from Canadian founders The reversal comes after @the_logic reported YC had dropped 🇨🇦 from its approved list of domiciles thelogic.co/news/y-combina…

New from me: Y Combinator is no longer investing in Canadian startups. The accelerator recently cut Canada from its list of countries where enrolled firms can be incorporated. They'll now need a new parent company in the U.S., Cayman Islands or Singapore. thelogic.co/news/exclusive…
