Post politics

Since his election defeat Volpe became publisher of Corriere Canadese, an Italian-Canadian daily newspaper based in Toronto revived by Volpe and several other investors in 2013. [111]

Volpe published an article in Corriere Canadese on January 8, 2021 questioning the decision of the Toronto Catholic District School Board to list YouthLine, an LGBTQ mental health resource, on its website, [112] but YouthLine called his comments "homophobic, transphobic and anti-LGBTQ". [113] In April 2021, Volpe filed a 30-million dollar defamation suit against Kristyn Wong-Tam and Paul Ainslie, as well as four Toronto Catholic District School Board Trustees and Yahoo Canada. [114] In May 2022, Volpe's lawsuit was dismissed in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice after the defendants requested dismissal under the anti-SLAPP provisions of Ontario's Courts of Justice Act.
