4 things to know about the new Nest Aware
Tuesday, May 12, 2020
We’re all spending more time at home these days, and for many of us, that means investing time in our personal spaces and trying to check in on loved ones as much as possible. For Google Nest users, that’s getting a little easier: starting this week, the
new Nest Aware
is rolling out in Canada. The subscription service is a helpful, affordable companion to all of your Google Nest devices whether you’re home or away.
And even though many of us are home far more often right now, we have several features that make life at home a little easier. Here’s what to expect from the new
Nest Aware
:
More affordable, simplified pricing.
Instead of paying per camera, all of your devices per home—including your cameras, speakers and displays—are covered for one low price, even when you add a new device. For just $8 a month (or $80 for an annual subscription), the new Nest Aware comes with 30 days of event video history. Or, for those who want 24/7 video history, you can choose Nest Aware Plus for 60 days of event video history and 10 days of 24/7 video history for $16 per month (or $160 for an annual subscription).
Get alerts that matter.
With the new Nest Aware, now your devices will start recording event clips when they detect motion or sound and give you the clips you need to see. When something happens that needs your attention—like a package being delivered—we’ll send you an alert. If you prefer 24/7 continuous recording, for example, on your outdoor camera during the night, that’s also still available with Nest Aware Plus.
Take care of loved ones.
If your elderly parent or relative has a Nest Hub Max, not only can they stay in touch with loved ones through Duo video calling, but you can also look out for them with the new Nest Aware. All they have to do is
invite you as a home member
and enable their speaker or display, and you’ll get notifications if something needs your attention.
Easily upgrade from old to new.
If you already have an existing Nest Aware subscription, you can upgrade to the new version through the Google Store. Keep in mind that upgrading to the new Nest Aware requires that you
migrate to a Google account
if you haven’t already. You also have the option to keep your current subscription if you choose.
In addition to rolling out the new Nest Aware, over the next few days,
package detection
will roll out globally where Nest Hello is sold. And to make it even easier to bring more help into your home we’ve updated pricing for some of our products: starting today,
Nest Hub
is available for $99.99 and
Nest Cam Indoor
is now $179.99. We hope the new Nest Aware helps you save a little more, care for your loved ones, and know that all is well in the place you call home.
Meet Canada’s Group of Seven
Thursday, May 7, 2020
Discover the Algonquin school, the most important art movement you’ve never heard of!
It’s a century on from a defining moment in Canada’s artistic history. The founding of the
Group of Seven
in 1920 saw the Canadian landscape, and Canadian painting, celebrated on its own unique merits like never before.
Taking inspiration from Post Impressionist European art - maybe particularly Vincent Van Gogh - the group invented a uniquely Canadian voice, singing Canada in color for the world to hear.
The
McMichael
Canadian Art Collection boasts a significant collection of the Group’s work. Six of the members are even buried here! The executive director Ian Dejardin explains their importance: “In May 1920, seven artists in Toronto came together as a group to exhibit a bright, colourful modern style of painting.”
“The Group of Seven set out to represent their vast country in a new, vibrant visual language, ultimately derived from Post-Impressionism but uniquely Canadian.”
“Though initially reviled, their ultimate success was such that they have dominated the development of art in Canada ever since, and many Canadians see their country through the Group’s eyes to this day.”
Emily Carr - the pioneering artist whose eye for light as a vehicle for form was the first proper instance of Post-Impressionist influence in Canadian painting - and the landscape painter Tom Thomson were important precedents for the Group of Seven, but are not usually included in the list of core members.
Thomson, it’s safe to assume, would have been a member but for the fact that he died during a canoeing trip (under circumstances which remain disputed) before the forming of the group. Curiously, there are 10 painters in all who are considered Group of Seven members. Scroll on to meet them all…
Franklin Carmichael
Carmichael worked as an illustrator, which may go some way to explaining the geometric layers, the immediacy of visual communication, in his paintings.
He worked mainly in watercolors, but also painted his beloved Ontario landscape in luscious oils, such as this autumnal view.
Carmichael was the group’s youngest founding member and a bit of an outsider (look at this cubist/futurist experiment, for example!), but became a defining voice in Canadian art throughout his career.
A.J.Casson
Keeping the youthful vibe alive in the group was the even younger A.J. Casson, who joined later at Carmichael’s request - the eighth member of the seven.
Casson’s work celebrates the landscapes and the forests of Ontario, but also the manual touch of human labor. His paintings work at an intersection between Post Impressionist brushstrokes and more structural geometry, which he reads into the natural and human world.
Lionel LeMoine FitzGerald
LeMoine FitzGerald wanted to “make the picture a living thing”. He credits time spent on his maternal Grandmother’s farm with influencing his work. He remembers that “roaming through the woods and over the fields and the vivid impressions of those holidays inspired many drawings and paintings of a later date”.
There’s something of the mid-career Van Gogh in the ruggedness of this harvester’s face, the gold of the corn. And perhaps the echoes of Millet’s The Sower (1850) are obvious, a painting which had a profound influence on North American culture (Walt Whitman was a big fan!). LeMoine FitzGerald was less interested in making the Group’s work uniquely Canadian and nationalist, so wouldn’t have wanted to move away from their European influences quite as much as the other members.
Lawren S. Harris
Clouds and snow and mountainous shapes were the order of the day for Harris, whose work strayed as far as being abstract in form, and as north as Canada’s arctic landscapes in setting.
This island, set into the middle of a northern lake as an independent body, is partially framed and obscured by the dividing lines of the foreground branches. Similarly, Harris saw the various framing devices and rubrics of the art world as obscuring a work’s purity. He attempted to cut his paintings free of time and place by refusing to sign or date them, wanting the pictures to exist and be judged purely on their own fundamental merit.
Edwin Holgate
Holgate is singular amongst the group for being primarily known as a portrait painter. He was vastly influential in the Montreal scene, and painted everyone from cellists within closely-observed interiors to female nudes en plein air.
His close observation of human expression, and his eye for the universal within the domestic, set him apart from the other members of the group.
A.Y. Jackson
Bridging Montreal and Toronto, Jackson was instrumental in binding together the artists from these two major cities and therefore consolidating Canadian painting as a national movement. He taught at the Banff School of Fine Arts in the 1940s and took up residence at the McMichael Gallery later.
Jackson managed to travel to Europe and back on a cattle-boat! This trip influenced his Neo-Impressionist style, to which he brought a verve which was all his own.
Frank Johnston
A founding member, Johnston only exhibited with the Group of Seven in their first show at the then-named Art Gallery of Toronto.
His earlier landscapes are interpretive and layered, recalling the geometric trees and dividing lines of Paul Nash. Johnston later focused on realistically showing the effects of light on water and snow.
Arthur Lismer
Ever heard of ‘dazzle camouflage’? It was a form of weird and sort-of wonderful paint-job applied to the hulls of military warships in World War I in order to make it difficult for the enemy to judge the ship’s distance when targeting. Strangely, the technique operates by making the ships more visible, but unsurely placed. Arthur Lismer is perhaps best known for his paintings of these ‘razzle dazzle’ boats.
His fascination with sight, distance, light, and their strange intercommingling also influenced his paintings of the Canadian landscape, in which shape and space become mutable and changeable.
J.E.H MacDonald
Born in Durham in North East England, MacDonald moved to Ontario with his family in 1887, at the age of 14, and began training as a painter that very year.
Like many of the Group of Seven, MacDonald worked as a commercial designer and artist, but was also heavily influenced by Post Impressionist styles and mood. These combined to form his rich, massy treatment of shape and color - owing a lot to Van Gogh - which was originally dismissed as “incoherent” by contemporary critics.
Frederick Varley
Like Lismer and MacDonald, Varley was a native of the North of England. He moved from Sheffield to Canada in 1912 at Lismer’s suggestion (Lismer was also Sheffield-born).
Varley spent time as an official war painter, which initially imbued his paintings and his palette with a bleak feel. After the First World War, he seemed to relish the return to color in his works, which became more lush, deep, and rich.

Helping local restaurants to connect with customers during times of uncertainty
Thursday, April 30, 2020
Tina Leckie is the owner of
Fiorentina
, a restaurant in Toronto’s Danforth neighbourhood specializing in farm to table cuisine that has been dishing up meals with local ingredients for the past eight years. As many dine-in restaurants and bars close their doors to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, restaurant owners like Tina are looking for new ways to serve customers and keep the lights on.
Over the last two months, the restaurant industry has dramatically changed and Canadians are searching online to understand their new dining options. While people are still searching for "
local restaurants near me
," the focus has shifted to alternative mealtime solutions. For example, Canadian searches for "takeout" increased +180% in April compared to January 2020 and we saw “delivery” search interest increase 130% from March to April, compared to the 30 days prior.
To help restaurants during this time, Google has launched new tools to make it easier for restaurants to share how they are operating. Canadian restaurants can now update their free
Google My Business
business listing to communicate adjusted hours or updated delivery options, such as curbside pickup, no-contact delivery or takeout. These attributes appear on a restaurant’s business profile on Google Search and Maps and are visible when customers are looking for dining options that meet their needs. Businesses can even create a
COVID-19 post
on their business profile to share any new safety precautions they’ve implemented to keep customers safe.
Toronto’s Fiorentina has updated their Google My Business listing to let customers know they are now offering curbside pickup and no-contact delivery. Businesses can also create a COVID-19 post on their profile to share any new safety precautions they’ve implemented.
For Tina, digital tools have made all the difference in keeping Fiorentina open. “Updating our business profile was easy to do on Google, and this helped us share our new website, and let customers know we’re offering curbside pick-up and delivery, despite being temporarily closed for dine-in,” said Tina. “Now anyone searching for restaurants in the neighbourhood can see that we’re still open and offering adjusted services. Our customers and community have been extremely appreciative of these updates, and continue to support us while we stay open for business.”
“Small businesses have and always will be critical to the Canadian economy, and as consumers shift purchasing behaviour to online, it’s imperative that businesses are also online and can be found,” says John Kiru, Executive Director of the
Toronto Association of Business Improvement Areas
. “Google My Business helps restaurants not only be found online, but also connect with customers and let them know important updates like revised store hours, alternative service options, and new safety measures implemented during COVID-19.”
Since launching Google My Business, we’ve helped more than 150 million local businesses globally connect with people who are looking for them online. The pandemic presents unique challenges to the restaurant industry and while the path forward is not yet clear, we’re committed to supporting our local communities. Business owners can learn more on our
Small Business Hub

free, virtual workshop

Google Meet premium video meetings—free for everyone
Wednesday, April 29, 2020
Technology that connects us while we're apart helps keep us safe and productive. Over the past few months, we’ve seen the power of video meetings bring us together—whether we’re working with teammates, talking to healthcare professionals, sharing with loved ones, or learning from home.
Today, we’re making Google Meet, our premium video conferencing product, free for everyone, with availability rolling out over the coming weeks. We’ve invested years in making Meet a secure and reliable video conferencing solution that’s trusted by schools, governments and enterprises around the world, and in recent months we’ve accelerated the release of
top-requested features
to make it even more helpful. Starting in early May, anyone with an email address can sign up for Meet and enjoy many of the same features available to our business and education users, such as simple scheduling and screen sharing, real-time captions, and layouts that adapt to your preference, including an expanded tiled view.
It’s important that everyone who uses Meet has a secure and reliable experience from the start, so beginning next week, we’ll be gradually expanding its availability to more and more people over the following weeks. This means you might not be able to create meetings at
meet.google.com
right away, but you can
sign up to be notified when it’s available
.
Meet operates on a secure foundation, keeping users safe, data secure, and information private—including between patients and caregivers.
Video meetings built on a secure foundation
Meet is designed, built and operated to be secure at scale. Since January, we’ve seen Meet’s peak daily usage grow by 30x. As of this month, Meet is hosting 3 billion minutes of video meetings and adding roughly 3 million new users every day. And as of last week, Meet’s daily meeting participants surpassed 100 million. With this growth comes great responsibility. Privacy and security are paramount, no matter if it’s a doctor sharing confidential health information with a patient, a financial advisor hosting a client meeting, or people virtually connecting with each other for graduations, holidays and happy hours.
Our approach to security is simple: make products safe by default. We designed Meet to operate on a secure foundation, providing the protections needed to keep our users safe, their data secure, and their information private. Here are just a few of our default-on
safety measures
:
We provide a strong set of host controls such as the ability to admit or deny entry to a meeting, and mute or remove participants, if needed.
We do not allow anonymous users (i.e., without a Google Account) to join meetings created by individual accounts.
Meet meeting codes are complex by default and therefore resilient to brute-force “guessing.”
Meet video meetings are encrypted in transit, and all recordings stored in Google Drive are encrypted in transit and at rest.
We don’t require plugins to use Meet on the web. It works entirely in Chrome and other modern
browsers
, so it’s less vulnerable to security threats.
On mobile, we have dedicated Google Meet apps in the
Apple App Store
and
Google Play Store
.
Meet users can enroll their account in
Google’s Advanced Protection Program
—our strongest protections available against phishing and account hijacking.
Google Cloud undergoes regular rigorous security and privacy audits for all its
services
. Our global compliance certifications can help support regulatory requirements such as GDPR and HIPAA, as well as COPPA and FERPA for education.
Your Meet data is not used for advertising, and we don't sell your data to third parties.
We operate a highly secure and resilient
private network
that encircles the globe and connects our data centers to each other—ensuring that your data stays safe. Trust is built on transparency and we publish the
locations of all our data centers
. You can learn more about how Meet keeps your video meetings safe
in this post
.
Free Google Meet accounts for individuals
You can use Meet to schedule, join or start secure video meetings with anyone—for a virtual yoga class, weekly book club, neighborhood meeting, or happy hour with friends. Until now, Meet has only been available as part of
G Suite
, our collaboration and productivity solution for businesses, organizations and schools. Going forward, Meet will be available to anyone for free on the web at
meet.google.com
and via mobile apps for
iOS
or
Android
. And if you use Google Calendar, you’ll be able to easily start or join from there, too.
Use your existing Google Account to start a secure meeting in Google Meet
If you have an existing Google Account (for example, if you’re a @gmail.com user), sign in at
meet.google.com
to get started. If you don’t have a free Google Account, it only takes a minute to
create one
using your work or personal email address of choice (we require this step as a security measure, and you’ll only need to do this once).
Meetings are limited to 60 minutes for the free product, though we won’t enforce this time limit until after Sept. 30. Creating a trusted meeting space is important, and being mindful when sharing meeting links in public forums can help create a safe experience for all attendees. For more tips on how to use Meet securely and effectively, visit our
Help Center
.
Google Meet for groups and teams
Groups within an organization can also use Meet to create video meetings that help coworkers connect one-on-one, collaborate as a team, and more. For organizations that aren’t already G Suite customers, today we’re announcing G Suite Essentials. G Suite Essentials is perfect for teams that need access to Meet’s more advanced features, such as dial-in phone numbers, larger meetings, and meeting recording. G Suite Essentials also includes Google Drive for easy and secure access to all of a team’s content, and Docs, Sheets and Slides for content creation and real-time collaboration.
Through Sept. 30, we’re providing G Suite Essentials and all of these advanced features free of charge. If you’re interested in G Suite Essentials,
complete this form
to get in touch with our sales team.
Google Meet for businesses and organizations
Whether it’s hospitals supporting patients via telehealth, banks working with loan applicants, retailers assisting customers remotely, or manufacturers interacting safely with warehouse technicians, businesses across every industry are using Meet to stay connected. If you’re one of the
6 million companies
and organizations that use G Suite to power remote productivity, you already have access to Meet. Admins simply need to enable Meet by following instructions outlined on our
Help Center
. In the spirit of being helpful during this time, we’re providing three ways for new and current enterprise customers to access Meet through Sept. 30:
Free access to Meet’s advanced features for all G Suite customers, such as the ability to live stream for up to 100,000 viewers within your domain.
Free additional Meet licenses for existing G Suite customers without any amendments to their current contract.
Free G Suite Essentials for enterprise customers. Enterprises can get in touch with our sales team to learn more.
Google Meet includes live captions powered by Google’s speech recognition technology
Google Meet in schools and higher-ed institutions
Many schools and colleges today use Meet to power secure virtual classes, PTA meetings, parent-teacher conferences, tutoring, and even school socials. Meet is included in G Suite for Education, which serves more than 120 million students and teachers globally. If your school already uses G Suite for Education, your administrator can
enable Meet
at no additional cost. If your school doesn’t use G Suite for Education, you can
sign up here
. To access resources for distance learning, visit
Teach from Home
.
Our hope is that by making Meet and G Suite more readily available for all, it will be easier to securely stay connected and productive—now and in the future.

Answering Canada’s questions about COVID-19 on YouTube
Monday, April 27, 2020
Editor’s note: This guest post is authored by Dr. Howard Njoo, Deputy Chief Public Health Officer of Canada
The COVID-19 situation in Canada is changing rapidly and we are learning more about the virus every day. As Canada’s Deputy Chief Public Health Officer, a large part of my job of late has involved speaking directly to Canadians to help them get the information they need about COVID-19. We’re working hard to share with you important updates on everything from our country’s caseload number, to explaining social distancing, to providing general health advice and guidance to Canadians.
It’s important that the Public Health Agency of Canada and the entire Government of Canada share factual and authoritative information with all Canadians in a timely manner. To do so, we need to reach Canadians of all ages and on various platforms.
That’s why I ‘virtually’ sat down with four Canadian YouTube creators, each one very different from the next, for a new video series on
Healthy Canadians
, Public Health Agency of Canada’s and Health Canada’s YouTube channel.
In my interviews with
Simply Nailogical
,
Peter McKinnon
,
jayaddict
&
The Sorry Girls
, I answered questions about COVID-19 and helped shed light on issues that mattered to their audiences, whether that’s debunking conspiracy theories, sharing tips on how to make helpful DIY masks or how to actually put social distancing in practice.
We are making progress but we can’t back down from the measures we’ve put in place so far. We want to help Canadians understand and prepare for what is coming by arming them with the authoritative information and answers they need during this unprecedented time.
Check out the interviews
here
. Remember to #plankthecurve and stay safe, Canada.
For additional information on COVID-19 in Canada, please visit the Government of Canada’s webpage, available

A Global Journalism Emergency Relief Fund for local news
Wednesday, April 15, 2020
Local news is a vital resource for keeping people and communities connected in the best of times. Today, it plays an even greater function in reporting on local lockdowns or shelter at home orders, school and park closures, and data about how COVID-19 is affecting daily life.
But that role is being challenged as never before as the news industry deals with everything from job cuts, furloughs and cutbacks as a result of the economic downturn prompted by COVID-19. The Google News Initiative wants to help by launching a
Journalism Emergency Relief Fund
to deliver urgent aid to thousands of small, medium and local news publishers globally. The funding is open to news organizations producing original news for local communities during this time of crisis, and will range from the low thousands of dollars for small hyper-local newsrooms to low tens of thousands for larger newsrooms, with variations per region.
Starting today, publishers everywhere can apply for funds
via a simple application form
. We’ve made the process as streamlined as possible to ensure we get help to eligible publishers all over the world quickly. Applications will close on Wednesday April 29, 2020 at 11:59 p.m. Pacific Time. And in the coming weeks we’ll announce who has received funding and how publishers are spending the money.
Additionally, we recognize that covering the coronavirus pandemic can take its toll on reporters on the front line. That’s why Google.org is giving $1 million collectively to the
International Center for Journalists
, which plans to provide immediate resources to support reporters globally, and the Columbia Journalism School's
Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma
which is helping journalists exposed to traumatic events experienced during the crisis.
Today’s news builds on
other efforts
we’ve made to support the industry and connect people to
quality information
at this time of need. We believe it is important to do what we can to alleviate the financial pressures on newsrooms, and will continue to look at other ways to help with more to announce soon.
