Anti-AI data centre rally in Aulds Cove finds support among hundreds of passersby
Original article ↗Key figures
The protectors and supporters stood along the highway with signs and about 300 paper flyers they handed out to drivers passing through the community just before Canso Causeway.
While the rally started at 2pm and was scheduled to go until 5pm, protectors ran out of the flyers within the first 1.5 hours.
“We handed out 300 pamphlets, and we did that without using AI.” RELATED: Unanswered questions about EverWind’s Crown land holdings in Nova Scotia Wow’kis said the AI data centre is not a good development for Unama’ki (Cape Breton).
In 1999, Glen Assoun was found guilty of the murder, and served 17 years in prison while maintaining his innocence.
