The Association canadienne d'éducation de langue française is a pan-Canadian organization. Nonetheless, it's quite rare, in the francophonie, to see organizations that include all three territories and ten provinces. We are not a political movement, instead, we support everything being done in the area of learning, education and identity building.
What I really like about our organization is that we have an excellent network. Among others, we belong to the Table nationale sur l'éducation, where 12 organizations meet to talk about how to help students, young people and the community live their identity in a positive way, so that their identity building remains front and centre.
We are not a union network or any other type of organization that represents other groups, but we have many partners. The Table nationale sur l'éducation includes parents, art schools, universities, colleges and school boards, among others. We work with all stakeholders involved in francophone education. Our goal is to provide support. If young people can have positive experiences in French and enjoy living in French, I believe this becomes an added value across the country, whether in the Yukon, Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, here in Acadia, or in Quebec.
