??Why Subscribe on LinkedIn? In so-called Canada, the passing of Bill C-18: Online News Act has led to bans on the sharing of news on Facebook and Instagram. Alongside this, Meta’s algorithms are actively suppressing the sharing of content it deems political, which includes news updates as well as community organizing events and actions related to climate and social justice. As such, we’re moving away from solely relying on these platforms as our primary way to reach you.?
