Corriere Canadese: Almost all of the Italian migrants more than 60,000 a year then arrived in Canada as labourers, with little English or education. The community paper was their link to their new and old homes in the pre-Internet world, according to The Star. Corriere Canadese helped them integrate into the Canadian society and created the links for them with the rest of Canada and Immigration from Italy to Canada was at its peak in 1954 when the late Dan Iannuzzi founded Corriere Canadese , an Italian-language newspaper, in Toronto. They had no voice. They were viewed as people who acted funny and talked funny with their hands, said Lori Abittan, president and CEO of Multimedia Nova Corporation, the public company that now owns the paper.
