Google has announced they will ban news in Canada in response to the Trudeau Liberals’ Bill C-18.

This comes just days after Meta – the parent company of Facebook and Instagram – announced they would block Canadians’ access to news on their sites.

Last week, the Trudeau government passed the Online News Act, known as Bill C-18, which dictated that tech giants would have to pay news outlets for clicks that direct people to their platforms.
