World Journal (Toronto)
The World Journal (Chinese: 世界日報; pinyin: Shìjiè Rìbào) is a Chinese language newspaper published in Vancouver, BC and Toronto, Ontario. The paper originally catered to Taiwanese Canadian readers, using transliterations used in Taiwan for foreign names. Despite differences between how words are transliterated in Taiwan and mainland China, however, the paper has subsequently come to be identified with Mandarin speakers in general.
The paper is published 7 days a week in the broadsheet format. News coverage includes international news, news from Taiwan, Hong Kong, and mainland China, business news, sports, entertainment, lifestyle, etc. Compared to the other two Chinese language dailies in Toronto, the World Journal is relatively strong in its coverage of Canadian news.

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or journal:
“If a weakly mortal is to do anything in the world besides eat the bread thereof, there must be a determined subordination of the whole nature to the one aim—no trifling with time, which is passing, with strength which is only too limited.”
—Beatrice Potter Webb (1858–1943)
“To have some account of my thoughts, manners, acquaintance and actions, when the hour arrives in which time is more nimble than memory, is the reason which induces me to keep a journal: a journal in which I must confess my every thought, must open my whole heart!”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
