Newspaper industry must ‘speak with one voice,’ say publishers pushing feds to ‘level the playing field’

Nobody can forecast what shape the industry is going to be in after any kind of return to normal, says The Globe and Mail publisher Phillip Crawley, one of 10 signees of an 'urgent message' to the government.

Heritage Minister Steven Guilbeault pictured speaking with reporters on Feb. 3, 2020. Newspaper publishers from coast to coast, including from the Glacier Media Group, The Globe and Mail, The Toronto Star, and Le Devoir recently issued an 'urgent message' asking the government to emulate the examples of Australia and France 'to make sure Google and Facebook pay their fair share, instead of exploiting tax loopholes while making billions of dollars off the back of original content producers.'
