We call on Minister Joly, Minister Solomon, and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (“ISED”) to do the following:
- Extend the consultation deadline to February 2, 2026;
- Reconstitute the Task Force into a more equitably representative one that is equipped to confront the ongoing threats of AI to people and communities; and
- Rewrite the survey into a more legitimate and unbiased consultation instrument.

My take from your redneck neighbor:
Equate AI policy to “monopoly busting” and regulating Big Tech. Huggingface models are alright. Altman is bad.
Otherwise you will get the worst of everything: sycophantic, censored, manipulative, easily abused AI that doesn’t actually work as a tool at all.
wtf is “cultural intellectual property?” Sounds like another word for gatekeeping.
Some heavy hitters in the list of signatories: Amnesty International, CCPA, Ana Brandusescu, Ron Deibert, Mél Hogan, Paris Marx, Robert Gehl (these are just a few of the names I recognise of people whose work I admire).
