Ottawa: The world’s largest Internet search engine company Google has said that Canadian news and other services will be excluded from its search for Canadian residents after a law passed in Canada.

“As soon as the new law goes into effect, unfortunately, we will remove all links to Canadian news from our search,” Google said in a statement. This is because every online platform has been mandated to provide some amount of money to the news organizations.’

Canada recently passed an online news act called C-18, which would require search companies to pay companies that Google says can include Canadian news, current affairs and other content from its search. Discover will roll out the products.

Google has also expressed its disappointment and this process should be made transparent as soon as possible. On the other hand, Metta, the main company of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, has also started implementing the same initiative. Facebook has said it is ignoring Canadian news in its search. This is because the C13 law came into effect on June 22.
