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 – It was not an ordinary storm that hit Ontario last Saturday, devastating some areas of the province and killing ten people.
TORONTO – The Hon. Joe Volpe, Publisher of the Corriere Canadese, has been appointed to the National Advisory Board of The Abraham Global Peace Initiative (AGPI). It is an honour that our Publisher has accepted with modesty in recognition of the impact of the Corriere and its team’s value to the Italian Diaspora and to the Canadian mainstream in which it operates.
TORONTO – After a long weekend that had given good hope, with few deaths and declining hospitalizations, the numbers of Covid-19 in Ontario are rising again: probably thanks to the failure to communicate the data, on holidays, by some hospitals. →
Just north of the Toronto city limits is the electoral district of Vaughan-Woodbridge. It is a district to watch, as electors may decide it is time for change. No matter the outcome, it is a rematch of 2018.
TORONTO – Three days have passed since the storm that brought Ontario and Quebec to their knees, but the inhabitants are still dealing with damage and inconvenience.
The electoral district of York South-Weston is situated in the west end of Toronto. It spans an area of about 25 square km and includes neighbourhoods like Mount Dennis, Rustic and Weston.
TORONTO – Hospitalizations due to or with Covid-19 still below a thousand in Ontario: today the number of inpatients went from 809 patients on Sunday to 890, thus remaining well under 1,000 while intensive care remained almost unchanged: 157 against 152 on Sunday. These figures are comforting, given that they also include the holiday Monday (Victoria Day) for which the numbers had not been disclosed.
TORONTO – Crews continue to work tirelessly to try to restore electricity to more than 200,000 customers across Ontario after a storm hit the province on Saturday, killing at least 10 people.
TORONTO – The Provincial elections has been “sleep-inducing”, except for the momentary turbulence created by Stephen Lecce’s association with Sigma Chi, the University fraternity club noted for its induction ceremonies requiring drunkenness, drug abuse, assault, sexual assault and rape, regardless of gender (activities that have led to the dissolution of some of its chapters).
TORONTO – Covid data stopped: today, due to the celebration of Victoria Day, the provincial health officials did not provide the usual bulletin, but the balance of last weekend is still indicative and highlights a significant drop in infections, hospitalizations and of deaths. →
The electoral district of Humber River-Black Creek was created in 2018, but the area has a long history. Formerly known as York West, the district spans an area of 30 square km and is situated along the City of Toronto’s northern limits with Hwy 400 running down the middle. The constituency is comprised of several neighbourhoods including Jane and Finch, Humber Summit, Village at York University and Black Creek.
TORONTO – One is tempted to say that the election campaign is all over, except for the counting. No galvanizing or divisive issues of consequence have emerged. The ones that have attracted some attention have been relatively minor. They could be best characterized as tactical.
Powerful thunderstorms rolled though Ontario Saturday afternoon causing widespread damage, power outages and multiple fatalities.
