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.
Nous publions une mise à jour de l’honorable Tony Loffreda (dans la photo ci-dessus), sénateur canadien indépendant, sur régime de fiducies collectives des employés (FCE).
Le Canada disposera bientôt d’un régime de fiducies collectives des employés (FCE). Nous savions que cela allait arriver, car le gouvernement fédéral avait d’abord exprimé son intention de s’engager avec les parties prenantes pour examiner les obstacles à la création de ces fiducies dans le budget 2021.
We publish an update from the Honorable Tony Loffreda (in the pic above), independent Canadian senator, about the employee ownership trust (EOT) regime.
Canada will soon have an employee ownership trust (EOT) regime. We knew this was coming as the Federal Government had first articulated its intention to engage with stakeholders to examine what barriers exist to the creation of these trusts in Budget 2021.
TORONTO – I was born in the city of Manila, Philippines, and have been a city dweller ever since. When I immigrated to Toronto in the early 70s, a relative offered me lodging in the suburbs, but I respectfully declined. At the time, I was juggling two jobs. Both were in the city. And I was not about to add an exhausting commute to the picture. What figured into my decision was the knowledge that living in a city, whether in the Philippines or any country for that matter, has more advantages than disadvantages. Work opportunities are within reach. So are churches, supermarkets and schools. On a serious note, if there is a medical emergency, you can be transported to a downtown hospital within minutes.
TORONTO – Pinaganak ako at lumaki sa gitna nang lunsod nang Maynila, Pilipinas. Noon lumipat ako dito sa Kanada, may kamaganak ako na nagyaya sa akin na doon ako manirahan sa kanila sa labas nang lunsod nang Toronto. Nag pasalamat ako at tinangihan dahil alam ko na mas madaling mamuhay sa lunsod. Ito’y maging sa Pilipinas o sa ibang lugar nang mundo. Maraming kabutihan naidudlot at kaginhawahan kaysa kahirapan. Sa suidad, ang lahat ay malapit katulad nang simbahan, huspital, tindahan, paaralan at sa iyong pinapasukan trabaho. Noon bago ako sa Kanada, dalawa ang aking pinapasukan trabaho na malapit lapit sa isa’t isa. Nakakapagog, pero kaya naman kasi bata pa ako noon.
Il senatore Loffreda scrive della necessità che il governo riduca le proprie spese rispetto al servizio pubblico e trovi modi per rendere la burocrazia federale più produttiva ed efficiente nella fornitura dei suoi servizi e programmi ai canadesi. E sottolinea la necessità che i parlamentari ritengano il governo responsabile dei suoi piani di spesa.
