What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorAl Jazeera reports the Parti Quebecois won Quebec's election and returns to power, promising a third referendum on independence from Canada.

  4. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorOpenAI said it has more work to do to rebuild trust. Nothing says trust like needing a parliamentary hearing to find it.
