Press Gazette / William Turvill
/ Dec 5“Like Australia, Canada will seek to compel Google and Facebook to pay news publishers for the use of their content. It will grant collective bargaining powers to Canadian publishers, and will threaten platforms with compulsory arbitration if they cannot agree deals with news companies. If and when the law passes, Canadian news publishers will expect to start striking valuable, long-term deals with the technology companies.” —JB
