## Resource

In today’s episode of The Peak Daily , we break down TD Bank’s new “productivity” software that tracks how employees spend their time at work — and what the rise of workplace surveillance means for anyone working remotely. Then we look at growing evidence that leaning too heavily on AI tools can erode key skills like critical thinking, debugging, and analysis. Plus, in The Big Picture: Canadian EV interest climbs as gas prices spike, Canada sends a record-sized trade mission to Japan, and Iran pauses nuclear talks with the U.S. The Peak Daily is produced in partnership with reframevid.com
