Create, improve and sponsor proposals in a respectful, fully bilingual environment. Grow proposals in the "Hothouse", for promotion to the "Workshop", to become official GPC policy.
Responding to the policy impact of Artifical Intelligence
This motion directs Federal Council, as the governing body of the Green Party of Canada (Article 6.1.2), to ensure that all Cabinet portfolios maintain a position on Artificial Intelligence-related policy for their portfolio, that is consistent with member-approved policy.
Type of Proposal
A directive to ask the party’s Federal Council to consider an action
Objective / Benefit
The Green Party of Canada will benefit from leading other political parties on Artificial Intelligence-related policy, understanding its impact across all policy areas. The 2022 Green Talks series recommended that every critic should understand the impact of Artificial Intelligence to their portfolio. This directive aims to codify that recommendation into Federal Council and Shadow Cabinet priorities. This directive takes no position on what the policy should be, only that it is strategically important for the Party to have a clear, nuanced position on the impact of Artificial Intelligence on all Federal policy as soon as possible.

John, thank-you for this proposal and for sharing the link to Wyatt's presentation. I have a background in IT and share his and your concerns over the lack of overview/guidance regarding AI development. If any GPC member reads this comment please take the time to watch the video listed above...Wyatt talks quickly which is a bit of a challenge but what he has to say is well worth the time to hear him out and to listen to the comments of those who were on the zoom call.
