- Business
- Media Central Corporation Inc., a former Toronto-based entity, once operated as a Canadian alternative media enterprise. The company filed for bankruptcy in March 2022, leading to the divestiture of its publishing assets. Historically, its portfolio included CannCentral.com, a digital platform dedicated to wellness, travel, food, pop culture, and cannabis content. Media Central also managed NOW Magazine, which catered to discerning readers, and The Georgia Straight, a prominent Vancouver-based weekly covering local news, arts, music, lifestyle, and events. Additionally, it maintained ECentralSports.com, a digital hub offering news, gaming insights, event coverage, and lifestyle features for esports enthusiasts. Following its bankruptcy, The Georgia Straight was acquired by Overstory Media Group in September 2022, and the digital assets of NOW Magazine were subsequently acquired by Gonez Media Inc. in January 2023. The ticker symbol FBOP does not correspond to this Canadian media company.
