Note to readers: Meta’s ban on Canadian news media

We have been watching this situation unfold with dismay as social media is an important avenue to share our stories throughout the university community. Here's how you can continue to follow the latest content from University Affairs.

Dear University Affairs readers,

As you may have heard by now, Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, will start blocking news content on their platforms in Canada. Some of you may have already encountered error messages that read: “People in Canada can’t see this content.”

We have been watching this situation unfold over the past few weeks with dismay as social media is an important avenue to share our stories throughout the university community.

Please know that you can still follow University Affairs on X (formerly known as Twitter) and LinkedIn, but we encourage you to visit our website and subscribe to our free email newsletter to receive all the latest university news, commentary, career advice and in-depth stories on trends and issues of importance directly in your inbox.

And as always, you can subscribe to our magazine at no charge in Canada to people who work or study at a member university of Universities Canada, UA’s publisher.

We appreciate your continued support and remain committed to producing high-quality, original journalism to keep Canada’s university community informed, connected and inspired.

Thank you,

Editorial Team
