A large number of our group of 38 member associations are in various regions. I hear stories on a daily basis about what is happening in Rouyn-Noranda, the Gaspé, or the Eastern Townships. These are individual stories that help make up communities that want to live on and
—you know, to live, play, and work in their community. How do you live, play, and work? How do you do everything that makes you a vital contributor to a community?
We hear some very interesting stories, stories from the heart. People are trying to find ways in these regions to retain these individuals, but also to give them a feeling of belonging in those regions.
I'm going to be a townshipper, or I'm going to be a person from Shawinigan, but I'm also going to be a Quebecker and a Canadian.
It's that level of attachment.
There are several individual projects in these communities that are contributing to this development.
