A week or so ago, I wrote about an absolutely horribly-designed poll from the government of Canada, theoretically asking Canadians what they thought we should be doing about "AI". I said that it was tilted so far in favour of AI - the questions basically embedded assumptions that we need AI, we need to subsidize it, we need companies to build it here - that it may as well have been written by Sam Altman.

It was 99% propaganda.

Well, this fellow has posted the questions and his answers. I encourage Canadians to read it, and answer the poll themselves as well.

"A strong majority of #Jewish #Americans said they are concerned about #antisemitism on #college campuses but disagree with President #Trump’s approach to combating it, a national #poll showed.

By nearly 3 to 1, #American #Jews believe that Trump is using antisemitism as an “excuse” to “penalize and tax college campuses,” according to the poll released Tuesday by Ipsos in collaboration with social and political scientists at UC Berkeley and the #University of Rochester."
