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 – Sixth wave of Covid-19 and few public health measures still in place. This is currently the situation in Ontario which, according to experts, needs a renewed vaccination strategy aimed at increasing the intake of the third dose, encouraging the vaccination of children and a possible fourth dose.
TORONTO – The sixth wave of Covid-19 is there, and it shows. Today, Ontario recorded another 10 deaths, bringing the total in the province, since the beginning of the pandemic, to 12,470. On the other hand, the updated data on hospitalizations due – a provincial health official said – to a scheduled maintenance of the computer systems are not available. But Saturday’s figure is enough to make it clear that the Omicron BA.2 variant is making the numbers rise with impressive speed: 855 people admitted to hospitals in the province, compared to 807 last Thursday and, above all, to 553 of just one week ago (March 28). →

TORONTO – Conservatori in fuga, neodemocratici in ripresa, liberali in caduta libera. È questa l’istantanea scattata dalla Angus Reid nel suo ultimo sondaggio che mette in luce come, se si dovesse votare adesso in Ontario, il Progressive Conservative di Doug Ford riconquisterebbe il potere come avvenuto nel 2018. L’unico dubbio – se i rapporti di forza dovessero essere davvero questi alle prossime elezioni di giugno – riguarderebbe la presenza di una maggioranza assoluta tory in parlamento o la formazione di un governo di minoranza, con la prima ipotesi più probabile della seconda…
TORONTO – L’avere abbassato la guardia può costare caro all’Ontario. Non hanno alcun dubbio alcuni funzionari sanitari di Ontario e Quebec – due province ufficialmente nel pieno della sesta ondata – che imputano l’aumento delle infezioni causate dalla sotto variante del Covid-19 Omicron BA.2 alla rimozione delle restrizioni come l’obbligo di mascherina e i certificati di vaccinazione…

In terapia intensiva ci sono 166 pazienti positivi (l’altro ieri erano 165, una settimana fa 165)…
TORONTO – Having let your guard down can cost Ontario dearly. There is no doubt that some health officials in Ontario and Quebec – two provinces officially in the middle of the sixth wave – attribute the increase in infections caused by the sub-variant of Covid-19 Omicron BA.2 to the removal of restrictions such as the obligation to wear a mask and vaccination certificates.
