• Download our free news app through Apple or Google Play.
• Sign up for push notifications from our news portal or daily news bulletins via email (an option we’ll be sure to promote in the coming weeks)

Our newsrooms across western Canada strive to bring you the stories within our communities that matter most and that isn’t going to change.

The decision by Meta to restrict news content in Canada is in response to Canada’s Online News Act – formerly known as Bill C-18.

The new law calls for big tech companies to compensate media outlets and aims to make a more level playing field when it comes to online advertising – a revenue stream many of our local newsrooms within Pattison Media rely on, but which companies like Meta and Google monopolize. Google has said it will remove Canadian news links from its search engine.
