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.
VATICAN CITY – “Listening and closeness”: this is how the Vatican defined the meeting held this morning between Pope Francis and a group of about twenty indigenous of the First Nations, accompanied by some Canadian bishops. Tomorrow, however, the Pontiff’s final audience is scheduled with the three groups he met in these days: First Nations, Métis and Inuit.
