The report makes recommendations on how Canada — and Saskatchewan in particular — can move forward with nuclear power. Brent is joined by Jeff Davis, Clean Prosperity’s Saskatchewan Director, to discuss the paper’s key findings.

Brian McQuinn, an associate professor at the University of Regina and co-director of the Centre for Artificial Intelligence, Data and Conflict, joins the show to unpack the trend and how AI continues to improve.
