It's growing frustrating to see how many Canadians don't understand what level of government is responsible for what. So many people in the sunken place just with their eyes targeting Trudeau not realizing what they're complaining about is the work of their premieres. That and the inability to be

Watched The Gorge on Apple, and it was not great. The whole time I kept thinking, who wrote this and which executive is their parent because I don’t know how movies like this get made when there are so many great stories out there to be told.

I cannot recommend taking The Canadian across Canada more! I had such a great time disconnecting from work, social media, the outside world and just relaxing on the train, socializing with new people, and seeing the amazing views that Canada has to offer!

Hey, this is fucked up: Meta, OpenAI (ChatGPT), and Remotasks (possibly more companies?) are using exploitative labor in Africa to train their AI. People are paid pennies to label disturbing images in abusive work environments. So when it isn't decimating our water supply, it's traumatizing humans.

I reached out to the gallery via email with an unsurprising response about public photography laws, trying to now get names of dancers, exhibitions are expensive to put on, and they are no longer selling the prints but no actual apology to the harm caused to the community. #Indigenous #appropriation

The gallery is now defending the photos saying they were taken in a public space which I think is unethical even if legal. Coming into Indigenous spaces for consumption and personal benefit is bottom level.

Disappointed that in 2024 there are still non-Indigenous photographers still exploiting and profiting off of Indigenous peoples and cultures. This NYC based photographer has an exhibition at this Toronto gallery of pow wow dancers without their knowledge. www.thecardinalgallery.ca/exhibitions/...

Block & report. X has several “native American” “love” “history” bullshit overseas accounts that Indigenous people have been trying to get removed as fake for years. They’re moving here. They post crap like the these images, sexualizing women, use AI, steal content, fish for likes, etc.
