What a surprise that there is one outside the US consulate in Toronto.

    The notice here on the site reads Flock Cameras have not yet officially been confirmed to be in Canada yet.

    Apparently Home Depot in Toronto has plans for them to be installed, to help with their theft issues. The same theft issues the cops already do sweet fuck all about. But apparently having AI hallucinations telling the cops that XYZ did the crime is somehow going to help them.

    While Rona is a "Canadian" company, it is owned by Sycamore Partners since 2023. An American private equity firm based in New York.

    I'm not sure what's left nationally beyond Home Hardware and Canadian Tire. Regionally and locally there may be some additional options.

    let me guess, you're standing in front of a home depot and are calling out things you see?

    i forgot home depot even in the states, was a premiere target for shoplifting expensive home improvement equipment, and selling it.(remember the shoplifitng sub, before it was shutdown in the 1st term). it was shoplifters primary target, followed by lowes. they often use the garden section to throw lifted material over the fence.

    Flock should be banned from Canada. Like ffs can't we even build our own dystopian security state apparatus? Shameful.

    Flock cameras are not the only problem, ring doorbell cameras and their similar products are also collecting our data and used to train a.I. and watch us and the thing is it is easy to have an off line/local motion detection camera for safety.

    I really wish someone would call out Carney on this shit in a very public forum.

    But no, instead he is gonna get praise for a standard neoliberal stuff.

    He doesn't care. He is the most conservative PM we got in decades. He is fully about dropping all pretense of human rights and civil rights and democracy. He does not give one fucking iota about Canadian sovereignty more than he has to. I am confident the moment trump is dead he will immediately want to normalize all relations with the US and do his best to act like it never happened.

    UBC, city of Brampton and Highway 407 seem to be the hotspots.
