Kevin O’Leary wants Albertans to believe his $70-billion AI data center park in Greenview is a win for the province.
It isn’t.
On Tucker Carlson’s show, O’Leary revealed his real vision: merging the Canadian and American economies into a European Union-type arrangement to counter China. When citizens near his Utah data center raised concerns about water and electricity, he smeared them on Fox News as “proxies for the Chinese government.”
This is the billionaire playbook. Wave the flag, scream about China, and demonize anyone who asks hard questions.
Albertans are being asked to sacrifice their ecosystems, natural gas, and water sovereignty so O’Leary’s clients like Google and Microsoft can train algorithms. That is not sovereignty. That is just trading Ottawa for a new set of masters.
