EU won’t ‘lecture’ Canada as it presses ahead with tech and AI regulation, commissioner says

The European Union’s democracy commissioner said he won’t “lecture” Canada or any other country as the EU pushes ahead on regulating tech platforms and artificial intelligence.

Michael McGrath, the EU commissioner for democracy, justice, the rule of law and consumer protection, is visiting Canada, as the Liberal government pursues an AI policy that puts less emphasis on regulation and more on adoption. He said the EU is pushing ahead on regulating tech platforms and artificial intelligence.
