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 – Weep for Canadian journalism. Not the “private enterprise” variety whose clear mandate is driven by an unforgiving imperative to meet the monthly payroll demands and operational requirements to stay afloat and relevant to their readership. Rather, be saddened by the “faux journalism” offered by quasi-State reporting and commentary on issues that should help define who we are as a country and a society.
TORONTO – 847 people in hospital with Covid-19, 273 of them in intensive care. Hospital admissions in Ontario are still decreasing: yesterday there were 914 patients, of which 278 in intensive care. →
TORONTO – After two years in which due to the Covid-19 pandemic, students have been tossed between distance learning and face-to-face lessons, parents are wondering what the next school year will be like. Today, during a press conference, Education Minister Stephen Lecce anticipated some funding from his government for the year 2022-23. “Funds to support the recovery of educational programs never completed and for those of mental health of students – said the minister – all this to allow them to start a more normal school year than the latter two”.
TORONTO – The number of patients with Covid-19 in intensive care in Ontario drops below four hundred for the first time in 2022: today, in fact, the number of people in ICU was 394. And the total number of people in the hospital still falls: 1,369 today, compared to 1,540 on Sunday. →
TORONTO – Fewer cases of Covid-19 than in previous days, but the positivity rate is skyrocketing: 30.9%. A percentage never seen in Ontario. Virtually every three Covid-tests carried out, one is positive.
