Canada Sues Google Over Alleged Online Ad Monopoly

Canada's Competition Bureau is suing Google for allegedly engaging in anti-competitive practices by linking its advertising tools to maintain market dominance and distorting ad auctions. The Bureau has filed an application with the Competition Tribunal to force Google to sell two of its ad tech tools and pay a fine of up to 3% of its global revenue. Google denies the allegations, stating that the complaint overlooks the competitive nature of the ad tech market. This legal action follows similar antitrust challenges faced by Google in the US.
