Meta’s ban on news links has rankled Canadians trying to share evacuation information across remote communities where social media is key to disseminating news.
Small wildfires burn south of Enterprise, Northwest Territories, Thursday, Aug. 17, 2023.
“What Meta is doing currently is unacceptable,” said Pablo Rodriguez, Canada’s transportation minister, at a news briefing Friday. “We’ve seen that, throughout this emergency, Canadians have not had access to the crucial information they need. So, I ask Meta to reverse its decision, allow Canadians to have access to news on their platforms.”
“Meta’s reckless choice to block news before the Act is in force is hurting access to vital information on Facebook and Instagram,” wrote Pascale St-Onge, the minister of Canadian heritage, on X, formerly known as Twitter. “We are calling on them to reinstate news sharing today for the safety of Canadians facing this emergency. We need more news right now, not less.”
Catherine Tait, the president and chief executive of CBC and Radio-Canada, said the national public broadcaster is one of the few ways residents of the affected areas can find out what’s happening beyond government news releases or emergency warnings. Tait said she is asking Meta, at a minimum, to reverse the ban until the danger from the wildfires subsides.
