Alberta minister met with jeers at AI data centre town hall

August 20, 2026
Alberta's technology minister was met with jeering, badgering and boos at a town hall discussing the province's plans for artificial intelligence data centres. Nate Glubish says the province has carefully crafted a strategy to protect local water supplies, electricity bills, and land use, but attendees say they don't trust the Alberta government to regulate the industry's risks.
