What is a Waymo car?
( — Waymo vehicles have been in headlines over the last few days after anti-immigration enforcement protestors set some of them on fire in Los Angeles. But what are they? A Waymo car is a fully autonomous, self-driving vehicle operated by the company Waymo, a Google subsidiary. It operates on a rideshare service application called Waymo One, which offers on-demand, self-driving transportation in select cities, according to How does ICE know who to deport? Waymo began in 2009 in San Francisco as an experiment and went on in 2016 to become a fully-operational robotaxi service in some major cities. 'The Waymo Driver is the embodiment of fully autonomous technology that is always in control from pickup to destination,' the company said on its website. 'Passengers don't even need to know how to drive. They can sit in the back seat, relax, and enjoy the ride with the Waymo Driver getting them to their destination safely.' Waymo cars are currently available in Phoenix, AZ, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Austin, TX, according to its website. They are reportedly coming soon to Atlanta, GA, and Miami, FL.

Fresh blow for London as US buyers mount £5bn raid on stock market
Two major British companies are poised to join the exodus from the London stock market after American rivals made multibillion-pound takeover offers for each. On Monday, semiconductor company Alphawave recommended a $2.4bn (£1.8bn) sale to US chip giant Qualcomm while high-tech equipment maker Spectris urged shareholders to back a £4.4bn sale to private equity house Advent International. The deals would mean both companies would cease to be listed in London, dealing a fresh blow to the City just days after Wise, the British financial technology champion, announced it was moving its main listing to New York. Both takeovers will also see the American buyers pay substantially above the share prices that their British targets commanded beforehand, prompting suggestions they may have been undervalued by London investors. Qualcomm's offer is more than 90pc above Alphawave's share price before talks began in April and the Spectris bid is 84pc higher than its stock price on Friday. Charles Hall, head of research at Peel Hunt, said: 'The bids for Spectris and Alphawave show how undervalued UK listed companies are given premiums of 85pc and 96pc respectively.' 'It continues the constant theme of companies leaving the market, with 30 takeovers of scale and just one initial public offering on the London Stock Exchange in 2025.' 'Urgent action is required if we want a healthy UK equity market that supports our listed companies and encourages the next generation of companies to list.' Qualcomm said it was buying Alphawave to aid its expansion into data centres, which are becoming increasingly important in the race to develop artificial intelligence (AI) software. Alphawave is a specialist in technologies that 'drive faster, more reliable data transfer with higher performance and lower power consumption', a joint statement by the companies said. This means its products 'form a part of the core infrastructure enabling next-generation services in a wide array of high growth applications, including data centres, AI, data networking and data storage'. Silicon Valley giants such as OpenAI, Google and Amazon are racing to acquire more data centre capacity to help train their AI programmes. Tony Pialis, the president and chief executive of Alphawave, said: 'Together, we will unlock new opportunities for growth, drive innovation, and create a leading player in AI compute and connectivity solutions. 'For our shareholders, the Alphawave board is pleased that Qualcomm's offer provides an opportunity to realise compelling value for their shares.' Spectris, which is headquartered in London, makes various high tech instruments, including particle measuring systems used in the pharmaceutical industry.

B.C. premier defends new LNG pipeline with terminus near Prince Rupert
B.C. Premier David Eby is defending the provincial government's approval to continue construction on a new pipeline project that will supply natural gas to a proposed floating liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal north of Prince Rupert, saying his government would not turn away investment in the province. The Prince Rupert Gas Transmission project is a joint venture between the Nisga'a Nation and Texas-based Western LNG to supply natural gas to the proposed Ksi Lisims LNG facility, a project the province says is still undergoing environmental assessment. "The Ksi Lisims project is an Indigenous-owned project led by the Nisga'a Nation. They are a treaty nation that has control over their jurisdiction," Eby said, speaking from Seoul, South Korea, as he nears the end of his 10-day trade mission to Asia. "They have a vision for economic growth in the area, for their people, which includes selling B.C. resources into the Asian market, where I am right now." The Nisga'a Nation and Western LNG say the Ksi Lisims project would be a floating production facility capable of producing 12 million tonnes of LNG per year. The project faces opposition from several environmental groups and the Gitanyow hereditary chiefs, who argue it will have negative environmental consequences, including a risk to important salmon habitat. Tara Marsden, sustainability director for the Gitanyow hereditary chiefs, previously told CBC News there are concerns about Western LNG's financial backing from Blackstone Inc. Blackstone is a major American asset manager whose CEO publicly endorsed U.S. President Donald Trump and contributed to his election campaign — with Marsden saying the investment undermines any notion that the project is needed to push back against Trump's tariff threats. CBC News asked Eby whether the bulk of the profits from the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission project would enrich a U.S. company. "We're not in the business of turning away investment in British Columbia," the premier responded. "Especially investment that assists us in diversifying our customers for our resources and allows us to get a higher price for those resources." The pipeline was first approved in 2014 under the ownership of Calgary-based TC Energy Corp, when it was meant to supply the now-cancelled Pacific NorthWest LNG terminal spearheaded by Malaysian energy giant Petronas. It was purchased by the Nisga'a Nation and Western LNG in 2024 under their revised proposal for the Ksi Lisims facility. Eby says he wants to work with Alberta Eby was also asked Monday about comments from Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, who said she could convince him to drop his opposition to a second crude oil pipeline from Alberta to B.C.'s North Coast. "I'm not the one who stands between Premier Smith and a pipeline to the coast. There's no proponent, there's no money, there's no project right now," Eby said. "In the event that Premier Smith is successful in assembling those things, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it." Prime Minister Mark Carney said last week he supports "nation-building projects," including a possible decarbonized oil pipeline — if he can find consensus among the said companies in South Korea that he's talking to are focused on bringing in hydrogen. He said that would involve Alberta using blue hydrogen, and B.C. exporting green hydrogen, which he said would aid in carbon transition. "I'm happy to talk to Premier Smith about our shared goals of increasing prosperity, about uniting the country," he told reporters. "Focusing on a project that currently does not exist, and focusing on our differences rather than where we can work together, is not the spirit." Eby travelled from Malaysia to Seoul where he met with officials from conglomerates like Hyundai and Samsung as well as the Canadian ambassador to South Korea. His trade mission to Asia, a bid to diversify the province's trading relationships amid the tariff war with the U.S., will wrap up Tuesday.
