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.

TORONTO – Come si suol dire, è meglio prevenire che curare. L’arrivo della pandemia di Covid-19 ci ha ricordato quanto sia vero. Lavarsi bene le mani, usare la mascherina nei luoghi chiusi, evitare assembramenti. Tocca ad ognuno di noi far sì che la prevenzione funzioni. Già. Per far sì che la prevenzione funzioni, però, bisogna anche informare. E questo spetterebbere a chi ci governa. Spetterebbe, perché non sempre accade, come nel caso della diffusione dei dati relativi ai contagi in Canada…
TORONTO – As they say, it is better to be safe than sorry. The arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic reminded us of how true that is. Wash your hands well, use the mask indoors, avoid crowds. It’s up to each of us to make prevention work. Yes. To make prevention work, however, it is also necessary to inform. And this belongs to those who govern us. It would be necessary, because it does not always happen, as in the case of the spreading of data relating to infections in Canada. →
