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.
Continuing with the excitement for the World Cup, we thought that the next logical step would be to take a look at group F and meet Canada’s opponents: Croatia, Belgium and Morocco, the top rated team in the past few years and full of experience, making them favorites to win the group. (more…)

TORONTO – The city of Toronto has been chosen as one of the 16 sites for the 2026 World Cup to be held in Canada, USA and Mexico: Fifa announced it yesterday, at the end of a long selection among 22 candidate cities. Vancouver is the only other Canadian city chosen to host the games. Edmonton, included on the list of potential sites, didn’t make it.

Ten (10) were also reserved for Mexico, while the United States took the lion’s share with 60 games that will be played in Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Kansas City, Dallas, Atlanta, Houston, Boston, Philadelphia, Miami, New York / New Jersey. Monterrey, Guadalajara and Mexico City are the cities chosen for Mexico. (more…)
PALERMO – Italy defeated 0-1 by North Macedonia in the playoff semifinal for access to the 2022 World Cup: the Azzurri therefore remain sensationally out of the top international competition for the second consecutive edition. Mancini’s team dominated for over 90 ‘, wasting a lot. And it was punished in the 92nd minute by a great goal from Trajkovski. The Macedonians will now play for a place in Qatar in the final against Portugal who defeated Turkey 3-1 in the other semifinal.
