格隆汇6月5日｜美国国务院：美国国务卿鲁比奥与玻利维亚总统帕斯进行了交谈。

Welcome back to Canada Daily, the newsletter on business, economics and politics from Vancouver to Montreal and beyond. If this was forwarded to you, sign up . Mark Carney loves a strategy. In one year as prime minister, he’s churned out a steady stream of them — on defense, autos, electricity and climate. Today, it was artificial intelligence’s turn . The document sets out big ambitions to boost AI adoption at Canadian businesses to 60% by 2034, from just 12% in 2025, create up to 250,000 jobs by 2031, and lift GDP by 3%. It earmarks billions to drive adoption, commercialization and to build sovereign computing capacity, including a C$500 million ($360 million) fund for startups. “You think about being able to take what Canada does really well, which is research, and ensure there is a path to commercialization,” Taleeb Noormohamed, parliamentary secretary to the AI minister, said in a phone interview. He said it’s critical to “crowd in” private capital and to prevent repeats of the well-worn Canadian lament that its technological innovators leave for elsewhere — a.k.a. the US. The strategy “was all about finding balance,” he said, “between the US and China on one side, where there’s no regs, and Europe and other parts of the world, where regulation has started to stifle innovation.” On that note, it wouldn’t be a Carney strategy without a pitch to middle powers. Canada wants to pool research, talent and compute among like-minded democracies, as an alternative to hegemons. But Canadians aren’t universally sold on building sovereign compute, with early signs of protest against AI server farms in British Columbia and Manitoba . “We need to have these data centers,” Noormohamed responded, stressing they should be built responsibly. By way of example, he pointed to Telus developments in Vancouver that promise to use the heat they throw off to warm 150,000 homes. “If we’re going to have a sovereign AI, sovereign AI networks and sovereign AI systems in this country, we ha...

原油下跌，因以色列和黎巴嫩达成有条件停火后，市场寄望美国和伊朗距离和平协议更近一步，尽管持续冲突给停火蒙上阴影。 WTI期货下跌逾3%，终结三连涨，结算价在每桶93美元上方。周三宣布的以色列和黎巴嫩停火可能满足德黑兰的一个关键谈判条件，为美国和伊朗达成协议铺平道路。 华盛顿和德黑兰已勾勒出一个框架，将双方停火延长两个月并重新开放霍尔木兹海峡。但谈判陷入停滞，零星战斗已经恢复。 伊朗表示，与美国的谈判最近没有取得进展，伊朗支持的真主党武装也拒绝接受由美国斡旋的黎巴嫩停火。与此同时，霍尔木兹海峡实际上仍处于关闭状态。不过，这些障碍并未阻止油价下滑。 “我认为，市场总体上仍执着于这样一种想法，即我们已经非常接近达成协议，”欧亚集团地缘政治分析师Gregory Brew表示。 特朗普在社交媒体上发文称谈判处于最后阶段后，期货周四上午跌势加速。特朗普上周表示，他很快将就停火作出“最终决定”。 “未平仓合约和成交量降至多年低点，显示交易员几乎完全处于观望状态，”荷兰合作银行全球能源策略师Joe DeLaura表示。 WTI 7月期货下跌3.1%，结算价报每桶93.04美元。 布伦特8月期货下跌2.8%，结算价报每桶95.03美元。 责任编辑：江学思

【有線新聞】新疆伊犁州霍爾果斯凌晨發生4.8級地震，目前沒有傷亡和財產損失報告。 地震發生後，當地居民指震感強烈，不少住戶下樓疏散，附近的溫泉縣和伊寧市等地也有震感。地震發生於凌晨12時19分，震源深度17公里。

位美国贸易法官采取了罕见的行动，亲自回应特朗普政府对他有关退还1660亿美元关税的裁定提出的上诉。这些关税此前已被最高法院裁定为非法。这名法官在回应中称政府提交的文件措辞“花哨”，并对其法律立场提出质疑。 在周三公开的一封信函中，法官Richard Eaton指出，如果司法部成功请求上诉法院立即介入，可能会对目前的一个在线退税系统产生不利影响。该系统迄今为止已处理了至少850亿美元的退税。 政府辩称，它是基于“自身职权”设立这一在线退税系统的，试图撇清这一系统与法官Eaton退还关税裁定之间的关系。Eaton则在信中写道，政府在推进退税工作方面“完全有理由感到自豪”，但他同时警告称，任何对他处理此项诉讼的干预“都将阻碍当前工作的持续推进”。 Eaton还在信中附上了30页的佐证材料，称这些材料足以证明，政府承认设立这一在线系统正是为了响应他此前做出的裁决，而非出于“自愿”。他要求将这封写给司法部的信函纳入本案的正式卷宗。 司法部于当日晚些时候提交了一份回应，指出Eaton似乎对本案的状态存在“错误的理解”。一名政府律师写道，他们之所以尚未请求上诉法院叫停法官下达的退税指令，是因为该指令目前尚未正式生效。不过一旦情况有变，他们会立即提出请求。 针对Eaton“目前的退税进展完全源于其裁定，而非海关机构自身努力”的说法，政府方面也进行了简短的反驳。政府律师援引3月提交的一份法庭文件显示，一名官员曾表示，早在法官初次下令要求重新核算税额时，海关已经着手“为可能产生的退税需求进行准备”。 法官直接出面回应对其裁决提起上诉的当事方是十分罕见的。Eaton负责数千起由进口商在美国国际贸易法院提起的退税诉讼，在最高法院于今年2月裁定特朗普政府关税违法之前，这些诉讼大多处于搁置状态。 在其中一起关税案中代表小企业的自由正义中心（Liberty Justice Center）在社交媒体上发表声明指出，Eaton的信函提出了一个“重要观点”，即“迄今为止在退还非法关税方面取得的进展，完全是因为法院命令政府采取行动才得以实现的”。 责任编辑：江学思

Robert Way Airbnb ( ABNB ) CEO Brian Chesky is expanding his ambitions and getting into the AI business with a new artificial intelligence lab to develop AI models and user interaction and design, sources familiar with the matter told Bloomberg. Despite his involvement in the venture, Chesky will not serve as CEO and will remain chief executive of Airbnb ( ABNB ), the hospitality business he founded two decades ago. Chesky’s new venture is expected to address the “less robust” AI chatbots currently in use by peers Expedia ( EXPE ) and Booking Holdings ( BKNG ) developed by OpenAI ( OPENAI ) and Anthropic ( ANTHRO ). Instead, Chesky is seeking to develop a more sophisticated interface with greater agentic capabilities, able to show more detailed photos, let users more easily compare options, and provide more advanced interactive experiences. “The [software development kit] wasn’t quite robust enough for the things we want to do,” Chesky said in an interview in October when questioned about integrating ChatGPT onto the Airbnb ( ABNB ) website. “I don’t think a chatbot is the right interface for travel or e-commerce,” Chesky said in a more recent interview. Instead, AI products will need to be more visual and interactive, he said. While Chesky's commitment to more sophisticated AI tools could benefit Airbnb ( ABNB ), investors appeared concerned that the new initiative may divert his attention from the company's core operations. As a result, Airbnb ( ABNB ) shares erased most of Thursday’s gains and closed only fractionally higher.
