What an amazing week, @TOtechweek! Congratulations.

Learned a lot. Networked even more.

Buoyed by the optimism and the use of AI to build quickly! Amazing time to be an entrepreneur.

Looking forward to next year.

I’ll be watching for @tobi driving a Luce around the city.

We just launched Canada’s new AI Strategy: AI For All. 

We’re taking control of our future — with AI that’s governed by Canadian values, AI that’s accountable to Canadians, and AI that serves all Canadians.

Great to see this through line continue with @pmarca keeping the joke running strong

Sense of humor important these days.
