World News Day helps to highlight the importance of independent, reliable journalism. It celebrates the stories, the people, the reporting and the professional news organizations who are responsible for creating and sharing news around the world.
Here at ThoroldNews, we are dedicated to bringing you the stories that matter most in our community. We share your neighbours’ accomplishments, alert you to breaking news, and hold those in power accountable.
Reporting on the news is a 24/7 job. Our passionate local team works to provide Thorold with informative and engaging content, with news updated as it happens.
Our community event calendar keeps everyone informed and is free to the community.
Over the past year, ThoroldNews has been with you through tragedies and triumphs, through snow storms that ground activity to a halt, and through concerts and fundraising events, and the first-ever Thorold reunion. Add to these, continuing coverage of local politics and business to see some of the ways we keep the people of Thorold connected.
When we learned RBC would be the latest bank to exit Thorold, our journalists were there to break the story, to ask how customers would be affected and to get reaction from local officials.
As we commemorate World News Day and the important community role we hold as a platform for sharing news and information with you each day, we would also like to take a minute to thank you, the community, for demonstrating local news matters by continuing to visit ThoroldNews.
If you would like to support our effort to continue to expand local news coverage in Thorold, visit here.
