Manitoba's auditor general is suggesting the province should have more oversight over the operations of municipalities following an investigation into allegations of financial mismanagement, improper governance practices and lack of accountability measures.

The Leger poll found 85 per cent of respondents believe governments should regulate AI tools to ensure ethical and safe use. More than half, 57 per cent, said they strongly agreed with that statement.

"It's very clear Canadians want government involved," said Jennifer McLeod Macey, senior vice-president at Leger.
