Left swipe on iPad

The left swipe on iPad is functional but the News widget is missing. Before it went missing, it had Top Stories from National Post as well as The Best of News(editor's picks). This is the missing widget. The iPad is a 12 about a year old. IPad is updated to 16.2. I have tried a hard boot. How can I put the News widget back on?

Thanks for any help you may have.
