  • A Guide for Writers and Editors Toronto: the Canadian Press 1983
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Canadian Journal of Communication (CJC) CANADIAN JOURNAL OF COMMUNICATION, 1984, -10 (3), 83 - 92. REVIEW ESSAY Bob Taylor, Editor C. P. Stylebook: A Guide for Writers and Editors Toronto: The Canadian Press 1983. $ 10.00 Reviewed by: N. Russell School of Journalism and Communications University of Regina Does the seemingly innocuous Canadian Press Stylebook wield much influence on general writ- ing style in Canada? And if -- as this writer contends -- it does, how can such influence be measured and, if necessary, contained? The questions are provoked by the recent publication of a new edition of the Stylebook, who1 ly revised and revamped. Overnight , the little blue (1966 and 1968 editions) or green (1974 and 1978) staff manual has expanded to a fat, fancy production with a $ 10.00 price tag. My own first exposure to the CP bible came when I joined the agency as a reporter in the Halifax bureau, in 1960. The 120-page manual that I was told to memorize contained a lot of mundane instruct ions on f i 1 ing wire-copy via teletype, some f i 1lers on the history of the agency and some rules on CP copy style. To a high school drop-out, many of these were useful and en1 ightening , 1ike the difference between "career" and "careen" (which the rest of the world still persists in ignoring). Some, even then, were archaic or arcane. For instance, peremptorily listed as "Under the Ban" were "chorine", "diesel ized ", natator", and "temblor" -- words that I had never encountered and which in the intervening decades I have never, ever felt any inclination to use.

Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT As a Chinese newspaper for European Chinese, Sing Tao Daily (European Edition) has a lot of code switching. The usage of various codes on its different pages is counted by using sentence as a unit in this article, which is found the newspaper’s code switching has the following characteristics: Firstly, the newspaper mainly focuses on intra-sentential switchings and inter-sentential switchings, with few tag-switchings; Secondly, the code switching frequency of different pages is also different. The frequency of code switching in news pages is low, and the frequency of code switching in entertainment and leisure pages is high, especially in the Hong Kong pages; Thirdly, the code switching of different pages is different. For example, it is mainly conversed between Mandarin and English for the international news, and mainly conversed between Mandarin and Cantonese for the Hong Kong page. In addition, it’s believed that many reasons for code-switching strategies used on newspaper are in the purpose of meeting the needs of readers and adjusting the discourse. Keywords: Sing Tao Daily (European Edition), code switching, types of code-switching, motivations of code switching Daily (European Edition)", people can understand the characteristics of code switching of the newspaper and 1.

  • Torstar Corporation Welcomes Single-Event Sports Wagering to Canada Plans to Include Sports Wagering As Part of Its Ontario-Based Internet Gaming Business
    Torstar Corporation Welcomes Single-Event Sports Wagering to Canada Plans to include sports wagering as part of its Ontario-based internet gaming business FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TORONTO, Ontario (July 6, 2021) – Torstar Corporation today applauded the Government of Ontario's announcement of iGaming Ontario, a new subsidiary of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO). iGaming Ontario is an agency of the Government of Ontario that conducts and manages internet gaming in the province when provided by private gaming operators. "Torstar supports a legal and regulated iGaming market that will provide consumer choice, consumer protections, a return to taxpayers and a robust responsible gaming program," said Jordan Bitove, co- owner of Torstar. The announcement comes on the heels of the Parliament and Senate of Canada passing Bill C-218, the Safe and Regulated Sports Betting Act. It is an Act to amend the Criminal Code to allow for single-event sports betting. Torstar intends to include single-event sports wagering with the launch of an online casino betting brand in Q4 2021 in the regulated Ontario online gaming market. "We are excited to offer sports wagering as part of our product offering in a regulated online Ontario gaming market with a made-in-Ontario sports product," said John Boynton, Vice-Chair of NordStar Capital, the parent company of Torstar. "We believe the exciting sports coverage that our world-class sports journalists create will complement our sports wagering platform." The Canadian Gaming Association (CGA) has stated that more than $10 billion is bet annually through illegal bookmaking operations in Canada, usually operated by organized crime organizations.
