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.

“Thus were we weaned to knowledge of the Will
That wills the natural world but wills us dead.”
—Louis MacNeice (1907–1963)
“How truly does this journal contain my real and undisguised thoughts—I always write it according to the humour I am in, and if a stranger was to think it worth reading, how capricious—insolent & whimsical I must appear!—one moment flighty and half mad,—the next sad and melancholy. No matter! Its truth and simplicity are its sole recommendations.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
