A new initiative will see Alphabet – the parent company of Google – take charge of redeveloping a waterfront district in Toronto. Here’s why that’s troubling

Alphabet, the parent company of Google, does not suffer from a lack of ambition. Its subsidiaries are tackling topics ranging from autonomous vehicles to smart homes, artificial intelligence to biotech life extension. So perhaps it shouldn’t be a surprise that Alphabet has decided it will plan, build, and run a city, too – well, part of a city. It’s a bit more surprising that a major city is happily handing Alphabet a neighborhood of prime real estate to call their own.

The project announced last week is a partnership between Sidewalk Labs, an Alphabet subsidiary focused on urban technology, and Toronto. Sidewalk Labs will be in charge of redeveloping a waterfront district called Quayside.

Editorial: Honor the Truth, John Kelly

I’d hate to be the criminal fool who fed him a false story to try and destroy the trumped-up offense Trump felt from the Congressmember. Power does seem to corrupt judgment even in someone ho many believed had good judgment – but he took the job offered him and now he has spent his honor cheaply. Of all people, he should have known how to handle a controversy with a Gold Star family, without making matters worse.
