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 – Non c’è dignità in guerra: solo omicidio, caos, sofferenza, sopravvivenza (si spera) e “profitto” per “qualcuno”. Come tanti della mia generazione, il militarismo era parte integrante della nostra tradizione familiare.

TORONTO – Covid-19 infections could slowly start to rise again in Canada: this is what emerges from new data from the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC): there are signs of continued fluctuations in some indicators of COVID-19 activity after a long period of gradual decline, the agency’s online epidemiological update reported on Tuesday. This could be an early sign of increased activity, an activity that is still low to moderate in the provinces and territories, the update specifies. But Dr. Allison McGeer, an infectious disease specialist at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto, points out that cases of Covid-19 are also on the rise in the United States and in other parts of the world, as other experts have already noted a few days ago.
There is no dignity in war: only murder, mayhem, suffering, survival (hopefully) and “profit” for “some one”. Like so many of my generation, militarism was an integral part our family tradition. Typical European young men were conscripted (pressed) into military service whether the government of the day/era was democratic or not; whether there was peace or war.
TORONTO – Il Corriere Canadese ha pubblicato l’intervento che un lettore, L.R., ha inviato alla redazione per sollevare un argomento particolarmente “caldo”: quello dei furti d’auto a Toronto…
TORONTO – Sarà un autunno caldo. La distanza tra governo e sindacati della scuola, al momento, sembra incolmabile. Il rinnovo del contratto – a meno di tre settimane dall’inizio dell’anno scolastico – non è dietro l’angolo e i sindacati degli insegnanti delle scuole elementari e superiori dell’Ontario in autunno chiederanno ai loro membri un esplicito voto sullo sciopero. Una serrata, quindi, si fa più concreta se la situazione di stallo dei negoziati non si sbloccherà al più presto…
