Politics in Command: Understanding China’s TechlashNick Frisch At first glance, Beijing’s crackdown on China’s tech firms might look familiar to American or European regulators grappling with how to tame tech. As in Washington and Brussels, Chinese regulators cite concerns over monopolistic abuses and dodgy data brokers. Officials in all three jurisdictions have gestured towards similar-sounding motives for their actions: reining in unaccountable corporate cartels, protecting consumer rights, privacy, and data from monopolistic abuses, and stopping socially disruptive profiteering from civil discord. Down at the level of the aver... read more

MPs expect the vote will be close; each side is predicting victory. The group of MPs who want to see O’Toole gone hold various grievances about their leader. Some believe O’Toole’s office leaked disparaging information about Alberta MP Shannon Stubbs to a newspaper and that the leader lied about it to caucus. Some feel betrayed O’Toole... read more
