In May 2025, Google began to pay CA$100 million a year to media outlets in order to be exempt from Canada's Online News Act. Gretel Kahn of the University of Oxford's Reuters Institute spoke to representatives from The Logic, @npub1ccc2...32l5, IndigiNews and The Rover about how things are going, who gets the money, and where things stand with Meta, which decided to remove all news for Canadians rather than pay up. “If companies like Google and Facebook want to play that role in being a trusted information source and they want people to come to their platform, trust it and be doing good things with circulating information, I don’t think it’s a crazy idea that they should be expected to pitch in funding journalism,” said The Tyee's Jeanette Ageson.
