Je parle français : portrait of la francophonie in Canada  : CH4-40/1999-1E

This publication presents the Canadian Francophonie in all its richness and diversity. This book retraces the achievements, the remembered places, the regions, the towns, and villages which symbolize and testify to the cultural, economic, and social evolution of francophones in Canada. In the introduction to this work, the Prime Minister of Canada, the Right Honourable Jean Chrétien, says: "The pulse of La Francophonie in Canada, whose heart is in Québec, can be sensed all over Canada from the Acadian seaboard to the far side of the Rockies. In all parts of Canada, French is used to communicate and express solidarity." Canada's seven million francophones not only speak French, as the title of this book indicates, but also sing, carry on business, and work in French. This book is a homage to those who have rooted the French language and culture in the heart and soul of this country. It profiles men and women who have made their mark in the fields of science and technology, education, business, and the arts and who contribute to Canada's progress on the road to success. The book's 360 photographs evoke the vitality of francophones and the splendour of our regions, and transport the reader through many Francophone doors in Canada. Available in French and English, Je parle français is an ideal work for francophones and francophiles, and for those who want to discover the people who took strength from the French language and their solidarity to carve out the place of their dreams.
