  • This payment is part of a deal under the Online News Act, which mandates tech platforms to compensate news publishers.
  • The funds are distributed by the Canadian Journalism Collective to support struggling media organizations.
  • Unlike Meta, which blocked news content, Google chose to comply and continue using news content.
  • Officials believe this agreement will bolster local journalism quality and help sustain the news sector in Canada.
