This move underscores the broader issue of technological sovereignty, which isn't just about physical server locations but also control over data, algorithms, and intellectual property. As global competition for AI dominance intensifies, Canada's efforts reveal both the urgency and the challenges in achieving true sovereignty in this pivotal tech field.
