  • The Quebec and Alberta governments have formed an agreement to collaborate on implementing artificial intelligence (AI) in public administration.
  • The agreement, announced by Quebec’s France-Élaine Duranceau and Alberta’s Nate Glubish, is set to span five years with a focus on knowledge-sharing rather than financial investment.
  • Quebec’s initiative aims to leverage its own expertise in cybersecurity and digital technology to build a more effective state.
  • Alberta’s minister of technology and innovation highlighted the province’s own AI initiatives as a means to increase efficiency and reduce costs.
  • Alberta’s leading role in Canada’s AI and data centre landscape, as recent research from York University suggests, underscores its potential to significantly contribute to this partnership.
