Artificial Intelligence
In a debate about Artificial Intelligence, Liberal MPs made vague, buzzword-filled statements about AI strengthening the economy, delivering innovation, and protecting communities and sovereignty, without providing any specific details or concrete proposals. The Liberal Evan Solomon thanked his Liberal colleague for 'incredible advocacy' on the topic, without mentioning anything specific he actually did.
