Mr. Speaker, plans for an international francophone college in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu are on track.
I would like to congratulate the promoter of the project, the Cégep de Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, especially its director, Serge Brasset, for his energy and determination.
The college would be affiliated with the United World Colleges network, which currently numbers some 10 different colleges. The Collège international de Saint-Jean would be the network's only French language institution and would be located on the Fort Saint-Jean campus.
This is an excellent plan that would allow students to follow the international baccalaureate program in French.
It is important that we give them our support, like my colleague, the member for Brome—Missisquoi, who has been supporting this project for several months now.
