The group Google asked to distribute $100 million to news outlets in Canada has publicly released its governance model, which it says focuses on sustainability, equity and innovation within the industry.
The Canadian Journalism Collective submitted plans to Canada's broadcasting regulator this week outlining the structure of the board that will ultimately oversee the funds. That submission was made public on Wednesday.The Canada Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission requested the information as part of the public consultations to enforce the Online News Act, which compels tech companies to enter into agreements with news publishers for the use of their content.
The CJC says its board will be compromised of 19 directors, including eight members representing publishers, eight members representing broadcasters and three independent members. The collective also intends to appoint an ombudsman to whom the public and board can voice concerns, and a dispute resolution committee that would have the power to investigate grievances.
Once Google gets an exemption, the company is set to deliver the money within 60 days to the collective, which would then elect its board and distribute the money to eligible news outlets. It also promises to support emerging news organizations, smaller media markets and innovative business models while ensuring marketplace fairness.
