Summary
Graeme Harrison, CEO of Augur and Simply Silicon, believes the growing revolt against AI infrastructure is only the beginning. He argues Alberta’s contrarian push to become Canada’s AI powerhouse is fuelled by considerable hype and could leave many speculative projects—and their investors—empty-handed. Yet if even some of those bets pay off, they could further shift wealth and political power westward, deepen regional tensions, and force a fundamental rethink of Confederation.
