About Puthiya Kural

A Tamil-Canadian publisher building a bridge between our Sri Lankan Tamil and Tamil Nadu roots and our life together in Canada.

Our Story · எமது கதை

A new voice, born in Scarborough

Puthiya Kural began with a simple idea: the Tamil-speaking community in Canada deserves a newspaper of its own — one that speaks our language, understands where we come from, and reports on the life we are building here.

The first Canadian edition was launched on 29 October 2023, made possible by a dedicated team of volunteers, writers and supporters. Weeks later, Puthiya Kural Newspaper Publications was formally registered in the Province of Ontario.

புதிய குரல்
Puthiya Kural means “New Voice” — a fresh, independent voice for Tamil Canadians.

Today, from our office on Kennedy Road in Scarborough — at the heart of one of the largest Tamil communities outside South Asia — we publish news, culture and community stories in Tamil and English, in print and online.

Our readers trace their roots to Sri Lanka, to Tamil Nadu and to Tamil communities around the world. Whatever their story, Puthiya Kural is a place where they are informed, represented and connected.
