Other information

The Region’s Multicultural Media Program is a paid advertisement program for media outlets.

We use this program to place translated advertisements in various print and online publications. These ads communicate and promote select Regional programs, services and events to specific multicultural communities throughout Peel.

A print or online publication must qualify and register to be considered for the program.

Language requirements

To qualify, a publication must serve a specific community in one of the top 15 languages in Peel.

According to the 2016 Canadian Census, these languages are:

  • Arabic
  • Chinese (simplified or traditional)
  • English
  • French
  • Gujarati
  • Hindi
  • Italian
  • Polish
  • Portuguese
  • Punjabi
  • Spanish
  • Tagalog (Pilipino/Filipino)
  • Tamil
  • Urdu
  • Vietnamese

After registration

If a publication qualifies, we will include it in our randomly assigned annual advertising cycle.

Registering does not guarantee that we’ll place an advertisement in a publication. Every 4 years, in conjunction with the Region’s Term of Council, we’ll ask publications to validate their information or re-register.
