TikTok ban upheld by U.S. Supreme Court — here's what it means for Canada
The United States Supreme Court upheld a law banning TikTok on Friday, meaning the short video platform has until Sunday to shutter its U.S. operations or find a buyer. The law calling for the closure or sale of the Chinese-controlled social media app — which has more than one billion monthly active users worldwide, including 170 million in the U.S. and 14 million in Canada — was passed in April. Last week, the U.S. Supreme Court began hearing arguments from the company’s legal team, which was hoping to overturn the ban. Prior to Friday’s ruling, TikTok had insisted it is unwilling to sell and will shut down in the U.S. The Financial Post’s Yvonne Lau explains the ban and what it will mean for the millions who use the platform, both in the U.S. and in Canada.
