"The origins of the Israelite Press are unclear. Both Lewis Lewendel and Arthur Chiel have written that it was founded in 1910 as Der Kanader Yid (The Canadian Israelite) by Aaron Osovsky and Baruch Goldstein. But Lewendel also wrote that Feivel Simkin, a community activist, involved in local leftist circles as an avowed anarchist, claims to have co-founded the paper with Louis Orlikow. Simkin served as its publisher and was associated with the paper for 60 years. By 1917, Der Kanader Yid had become The Israelite Press." "It folded in 1967, only to be revived in 1969 in the form of a 6 page tabloid format known as Dos Naye Yiddish Vort (The Yiddish Press). In 1981, after 70 years of activity beginning with Der Kanader Yid, the Yiddish press in Winnipeg came to a halt. It had run out of readers, due to the decline in Yiddish as a language of communication, revenues and subscriptions." Cf. Internet, The Israelite Press, viewed September 14, 2022.
