ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In June this year, hundreds of people took to the streets in Vancouver to oppose the construction of two new AI data centres in the city. Vancouver city council has shunted the decision for a Telus-Westbank data centre in Mount Pleasant until after the municipal election but there are many more coming down the pipe across Canada. We speak with Anne Pasek, associate professor at Trent University and one of the authors of the toolkit Resisting Data Centre Development in Canada.
