Early childhood is a key to the survival of linguistic minorities. The research clearly shows that young people who take part in early childhood programs in French are more likely to maintain their connection with French through their school experiences and in the community later on.
Moreover, there may be greater repercussions. In fact, the OECD told us that, in countries where there are very specific early childhood programs, the school performance of those young people is higher than that of young people in countries without programs. So it is an economic and social advantage for countries. It's really critical for us.
