Companies in the news:

News and telecommunications company Quebecor Inc. announced Wednesday it would immediately withdraw advertising from Meta's Facebook and Instagram platforms, a move that comes after the tech giant's decision to remove Canadian news from its sites. Meta has chosen to block Canadian news from its social media services in response to the federal Online News Act, which will require Google and Meta to pay news publishers for content that appears on their sites if it helps them generate money. The act known as Bill C-18 is due to come into effect later this year.

Canada's top technical authority on cybersecurity is working closely with Suncor Energy Inc. in the aftermath of a high-profile systems breach at the oil and gas giant. The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security — which leads Canada's federal response to cybersecurity incidents — said Wednesday it can't disclose details of the cybersecurity incident that caused payment systems at many of Suncor's Petro-Canada locations across the country to go down last week.
