For many years, the federal government has recognized the importance of 'Buy Canadian,' but it tends to be somewhat limited to strategic industries like shipbuilding: Irving in Halifax, Seaspan in Vancouver, and Davie in L é vis. Trump's threats are a clear and present reminder why our domestic shipbuilding capacity is critically important not just for job creation, innovation and technological advancement and economic growth – especially in coastal regions – but for safeguarding our sovereignty. For generations – all the way back to the founding of the Halifax Gazette in 1752 – government advertising had been an important source of revenue for news businesses. In recent years, this has waned considerably. For example, the federal government reports that during fiscal year 2022 to 2023, it spent more than $86 million on advertising. Of that, less than $1 million went to all print publications in the country combined. Where did the money go? Your noon-hour look at what's happening in Toronto and beyond.

Largely to American tech giants like Google, Facebook/Instagram, Snapchat, Apple, and X. One of the most effective ways to sustain independent Canadian journalism would be for the government of Canada to set aside a minimum of 25% of its domestic advertising spend for trusted Canadian news brands. RECOMMENDED VIDEO This is working in other jurisdictions and across the political spectrum. A year ago, Ontario's Progressive Conservative Premier Doug Ford directed that 25% of his government's advertising spending would be set aside for news publications. This made an immediate and meaningful difference to many news titles. Five years ago, former New York City mayor Bill de Blasio, a Democrat, mandated that city agencies allocate at least 50% of their print and digital advertising to community and ethnic media. According to The Center for Community Media at CUNY, 'The impact of this policy cannot be overstated: In its first five years, it injected more than $72 million into the local community media sector. This helped critical information reach New Yorkers who rely on community media as their primary source of news, and added an important source of revenue for these outlets.' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. The not-for-profit Rebuild Local News found that advertising set-asides, done right, have the following benefits: They can provide substantial revenue to local news organizations and help community journalism thrive. It is money the government is already spending – not new money – so it does not require enlarging state or local budgets or raising taxes. Government messages can reach a full range of residents, including those who may not be using larger media. As advertising, it is payment for a service rendered, not a subsidy per se. RECOMMENDED VIDEO Advertising in community news helps government be more effective by reaching audiences through community and ethnic publications that are more trusted in their communities. This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Beyond providing an effective way for the government to reach the 81% of Canadians who read newspaper content in a brand safe manner, a federal set-aside would send an important signal to other orders of government and to the private sector about protecting Canada's digital sovereignty and sustaining independent commercially viable public interest journalism. During the recent federal election, the Liberal Party of Canada's platform vowed to 'Deploy a made-in-Canada procurement strategy that prioritizes, whenever possible, Canadian suppliers.' At the same time, it noted the importance of news media. The document stated, 'In this time of crisis, protecting Canada means protecting our culture, our journalism, our perspectives.' It continued, 'In a sea of American media and disinformation, we need Canadian voices more than ever.' Prime Minister Mark Carney can meet the moment and fulfill his campaign promise through a federal government advertising set-aside that would see a minimum of 25% of federal advertising spending invested in Canadian media. Ontario and New York have provided the playbook. Let's get on with it and get it done with dispatch and determination. – Paul Deegan is the president and chief executive officer of News Media Canada World Toronto Blue Jays World Toronto & GTA Celebrity

Federal government to cut short study of bill to speed up resource project approvals
The federal government is defending its plans to push its internal trade and major projects bill through the House of Commons next week at a rapid clip. Critics claim the move will evade much-needed scrutiny of a bill that would give cabinet sweeping powers to quickly approve selected major natural resource projects, such as oil pipelines. Government House leader Steven MacKinnon has put a motion on notice that would push the bill through the House of Commons by the end of next week at an unusually swift pace — leaving just one day to hear from civil society groups, stakeholders and experts. View image in full screen Steve MacKinnon, Minister of Labour and Seniors rises during Question Period in Ottawa, Tuesday, Oct. 1, 2024. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Adrian Wyld When asked about the timeline at a press conference Thursday, Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson said the legislation needs to pass quickly to shore up an economy being undermined by U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs. Story continues below advertisement 'We have a trade war that is affecting sector after sector after sector. Canadians' jobs are at risk. Canadians' livelihoods are at risk. And quite frankly, the prosperity of the country is at risk,' Hodgson said.

But NDP MP Leah Gazan said before question period Thursday that the bill isn't going to build the economy out because it will trigger a series of court challenges. She called on the government to extend the study timeframe. 'I'm calling on the prime minister to slow it down, to not rush a bill that has this much consequence through in five days,' she said. 'It's irresponsible. We're in a crisis and this bill is going to make it worse.' Story continues below advertisement The legislation also looks to break down internal trade barriers and make it easier for workers to take jobs in other provinces. MacKinnon rejected a call from the Bloc Québécois this week to split the landmark legislation in two — so the House could speed through the less contentious internal trade provisions while putting the controversial major projects portion under the microscope. Prime Minister Mark Carney has vowed repeatedly to eliminate interprovincial trade barriers by Canada Day, 19 days from now. The House is currently scheduled to rise on June 20.

Canada's Couche-Tard says U.S. store divestment plan clears path for Seven & i deal
Article content Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc. said several potential buyers have made proposals to acquire convenience stores in the U.S. that overlap with Seven & i Holdings Co., showing progress toward a deal that could help the Canadian retailer win regulatory approval for its proposal to buy its Japanese rival. The two agreed earlier this year to discuss the potential divestment of more than 2,000 stores in the U.S. and seek out interested parties in order to address concerns by Seven & i over a merger being blocked by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. Couche-Tard also pushed back against any parallels to the failed $24.6 billion merger of grocery chains Kroger Co. and Albertsons Cos.
