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.

Time is running out for eye care patients in Ontario. As of September 1, most of Ontario’s optometrists will stop providing services to seniors, adults and children covered by OHIP.
In March, an overwhelming 96% of Ontario optometrists voted to withdraw eye care services to patients covered under the Provincial health care plan. The action by the Ontario Association of Optometrists (OAO) stems from more than three decades of underfunding by the Ontario government. (more…)
Bago mag pandemya, may nakausap akong kaibigan na nagtatrabaho sa Eaton Centre. Pagka ang shift niya ay bago magsara ang tindahan na pinapasukan niya, nakakatagpo siya paglabas niya sa mall ng mga tao kakaiba ang kilos, na alam niya na may ininom o ininiksiyon sa katawan. Sabi niya, hindi siya nagaalala sa mga taong nakatira sa kalye. Ang inaalala niya ay mga “druggies” dahil nangmomolestiya sa mga hindi kakilala at sa pamamaraang hindi kanaisnais. (more…)
Once, I had a short conversation with a friend who works retail at the Eaton Centre, downtown Toronto. He has varying work shifts. When assigned a closing shift, he observes a resurgence of nocturnal people, mostly behaving oddly, presumably due to drugs. (more…)
After it’s closure in 2012, Ontario Place, Toronto’s iconic waterfront attraction, was left underutilized and a sad reminder of a once major tourist destination. Hopefully, that’s all about to change.
The plans to redevelop Ontario Place, announced July 30, include new facilities and activities to be enjoyed and utilized year-round. (more…)

TORONTO/ROME – Since the entry into force of Ceta, the Global Economic and Trade Agreement between Canada and the European Union, trade between Italy and Canada has increased by more than 22% and Italian exports of goods and services to Canada are increased by 25% with the creation of 63,000 jobs in Italy: these are some of the numbers contained in the report that the Canadian Ambassador to Italy, Alexandra Bugailiskis (in the pic, from the Italian government website), presented to the European Union Policy Commission of the Senate. Numbers that, according to the Ambassador, suggest that CETA will play a decisive role in the post-pandemic recovery and “will help make our economies stronger, greener and more sustainable”. (more…)
TORONTO/ROMA – Dall’entrata in vigore del Ceta, l’Accordo Economico e Commerciale Globale tra il Canada e l’Unione Europea , gli scambi commerciali fra Italia e Canada sono aumentati di oltre il 22% e le esportazioni italiane di beni e servizi verso il Canada sono cresciute del 25% con la creazione di ben 63.000 posti di lavoro in Italia: sono alcuni dei numeri contenuti nella relazione che l’Ambasciatrice del Canada in Italia, Alexandra Bugailiskis (nella foto sopra, tratta dal suo profilo Twitter), ha presentato alla Commissione Politiche dell’Unione Europea del Senato. Numeri che, secondo l’Ambasciatrice, lasciano presagire che il Ceta svolgerà un ruolo determinante nella ripresa post-pandemica e “contribuirà a rendere le nostre economie più forti, verdi e sostenibili”.

(Fatti Nostri / Anna Foschi) Un ricordo di due estati fa. Seduta al tavolino di un caffè, in una tiepida mattina di settembre, di fronte a quest’uomo affabile e pacato che irradia sicurezza e competenza, mi viene spontaneo pensare a quante persone si saranno trovate di fronte a lui, nel suo studio di cardiologo, cardiochirurgo e chirurgo vascolare, inseguendo una speranza, aspettando una risposta che schiudesse loro un futuro migliore, affidandogli le proprie prospettive di vita. Perché il mio interlocutore, il Professor Fabio De Luca (nella foto), è un luminare della cardioangiochirurgia, e ancora di più, è… Read More in Fatti Nostri >>>
TORONTO – Nella corsa per vaccinare le masse contro il Covid-19 e porre fine alla pandemia emerge un problema preoccupante. Milioni di bambini sono in ritardo con le vaccinazioni infantili di routine… Read More in Corriere Canadese >>>
In the race to vaccinate the masses against Covid-19 and bring an end to the pandemic, a troubling concern emerges. Millions of children are falling behind on routine childhood vaccinations.
Covid-19 has disrupted several aspects of our lives, from social to economic and most significantly our health. The World Health Organization (WHO) reveals some alarming data following previous warnings that the pandemic would negatively impact basic vaccinations among children.
Cities are the engines of economic growth. In a modern society, technology plays a key role in making cities function better, faster and smarter. Tools like network connections, computers, sensors and cameras, can help communities use integrated data to make wiser decisions. A digitally “Smart City” is a benefit to its residents, but an “intelligent community” is one that uses information and technology to drive prosperity, tackle social and economic issues and helps enrich the lives of its inhabitants.
This year, the Intelligent Community Forum (ICF) named Mississauga as one of the Top7 Intelligent Communities in the world. (more…)
Thanks to improvements in key health indicators, Ontario will move into Step 3 of the province’s reopening plan on Friday. That means the easing of Covid-19 restrictions for several public health and workplace measures including capacity limits for indoor/outdoor settings. It also opens opportunity for more Ontarians to return to work.
“The best things in life are free”, or so the saying goes. Sounds appropriate if the best chance at seeing an end to the Covid-19 pandemic is through vaccination. Who wouldn’t jump at the chance for life to return to normal? The fact that Covid-19 vaccines are free for anyone wanting added protection against a potentially lethal virus should be incentive enough.

Improving public health indicators and increasing rates of vaccination mean Ontario is ready to ease more restrictions. It also means more people are able to return to work and head back to the office. But, could there be change in store for the standard 5-day work week? (more…)

Nang bumisita ang aking ina sa Toronto nung dekadang setenta, ito ang binigay niyang impresyon sa siyudad: napakalamig at maraming puno. Datapwat pumanaw na siya, aking naaalala siya ngayong sumusulat ako tungkol sa mga punongkahoy. Ipinanganak at lumaki ako sa lungsod ng Manila na konti lang ang mga puno. meron meron naman isang matandang Acacia na malapit sa amin na ginagamit na tagpuan o palatandaan ng mga tao. (more…)
When my mother returned to Manila from her visit to Toronto in the early 70s, she was asked of her impressions about the city, to which she gave the following observations: it is too cold and the city is a forest. My mom is gone now yet I think of her as I write this piece. Like her, I’m an urbanite. Born and raised in Manila where trees were a rarity when I was living there, I can only remember one big tree near our place – an Acacia tree. It was so old that people used it as a landmark when giving directions. (more…)

“The End of the World” was upon us in March 2020 and as schools and shops were shuttering up, long lineups built up in front of cannabis cafes in Amsterdam . In Toronto during that First Wave, it felt like the only place open was the grocery store. That, and the cannabis shops . Somehow, cannabis made it to the list of essentials . In-person visits to your family doctor, did not . (more…)

We missed being able to dine outside, we missed coffee with friends, we missed the mall. But we also missed – and our uncultivated hairstyles bear witness to this – the hairdresser. From tomorrow, with Ontario entering Step 2, it will be possible to do all this and more. The long-awaited relaxation of some of the restrictions with reopening non-essential shops, albeit at 25% of capacity, bodes well after so many difficult months. (more…)
TORONTO – Anthony Rota challenges Justin Trudeau. The battleground is the controversial story surrounding the dismissal of two virologists of Chinese origin from the National Microbiology Laboratory, a maximum-security laboratory in Winnipeg where lethal viruses such as Ebola are studied. This tug-of-war, which has been developing for several weeks, has gone a little undertrack but is likely to lead to a serious institutional crisis between the legislative and executive powers here in Canada in the near future.
