Welcome to the Canadian National Multilingual News Group (CNMNG). This is a project made possible through funding by Canadian Heritage. CNMNG aims to gather news researched and written by a corps of Canadian-based journalists/writers from the country’s multilingual community groups. The overall goal is to inform, analyze and critique the issues of the day in a professional manner and to provide that to publishers and editors active in the ethnocultural-multilingual press and media whose experience provides them with a perspective that is sensitive to news relevant to their own language group.
Radio Maria Canada (RMC) will host their inaugural open house on Wednesday October 13 between 10:00 am-5:00 pm and invites the community to come and visit. RMC’s new home is located at 4 Director Court (#105) in Woodbridge, after 25 years of broadcasting from their Toronto office at 1247 Lawrence Ave. West.
TORONTO – Alcuni miei amici sono spirituali. Credono in un ultraterreno che riconosce un’entità superiore dalla quale scaturisce tutta la moralità e alla quale, in definitiva, dobbiamo tutti rendere conto.

For the first time, the Vatican officially asks the Italian government to amend a bill, appealing to the Concordat, the “pact” that regulates relations between the Italian state and the Catholic Church. The bill in question is the one born on the initiative of the deputy Pd Alessandro Zan and which has been in the spotlight for months in Italy because, according to several political parties, it could jeopardize freedom of expression by providing severe penalties for opinions that can be classified as offenses based “on sex, gender, sexual orientation or gender identity “.

Per la prima volta, il Vaticano chiede ufficialmente al governo italiano di modificare un disegno di legge, appellandosi al Concordato, il “patto” che regola i rapporti tra lo Stato italiano e la Chiesa cattolica. Il ddl in questione è quello nato su iniziativa del deputato Pd Alessandro Zan e che è sotto i riflettori da mesi in Italia in quanto, secondo più parti politiche, metterebbe a rischio la libertà di espressione prevedendo pene severe per opinioni inquadrabili come offese fondate “sul sesso, sul genere, sull’orientamento sessuale o sull’identità di genere”.

The Supreme Court of Canada (SCC) would seem to have laid down the ground rules for any discussion on the legitimacy of Catholic schools in Ontario’s “public education systems”.

TORONTO – Whatever one might hazard to say about Israel… it would be wrong, the moment a “shot” is fired. There have been many “shots” fired in the last week. In fact, as of May 19, the overall death toll in Gaza stood at 197 people, including 58 children and 34 women, with 1,235 injured and about 70,000 displaced. (more…)
TORONTO – When the trustees at the Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB) told the Cardinal to “stick it in his ear” they touched off a firestorm of rejection, local and beyond. The public would seem to object to their religious and legal rights being usurped by entry-level politicos. A blogger from far away Texas has initiated an online petition calling for the ouster of these “pretenders”. (more…)
Até onde chegarão a partir daqui?
As sociedades greco-romanas e judaico-cristãs, durante milénios explicaram a necessidade de precaução, servindo-se de metáforas, que giram em torno da expulsão do Jardim do Éden ou da abertura da caixa de Pandora.
O conceito de base associado é “se algo pode correr mal…não é grande problema”. (more…)
104 anos depois da primeira aparição da Virgem Maria (aos três pastorinhos: Lúcia, Francisco e Jacinta) em Fátima Portugal, o seu santuário voltou a acolher peregrinos para celebrar esse acontecimento.
Em 2020 a presença de fiéis foi simplesmente simbólica, mas este ano e apesar das restrições, o recinto contou com aproximadamente 7.500 peregrinos ( em condições normais seriam à volta de 300.000).
Como em alturas anteriores as celebrações tem como pontos altos a vigília e procissão de velas no dia 12 de Maio e a celebração eucaristica no dia 13.
As celebrações foram presididas por Dom José Tolentino de Mendonça, cardeal, teólogo e professor universitário. (more…)
