Mr. Speaker, last Friday I had the honour of attending the launch of the Réseau de la ruralité franco-ontarienne. This Internet site consolidates relevant information on events and the accomplishments of rural Franco-Ontarians.
This portal will help to stimulate the creation and distribution of Internet information in French targeted at rural communities.
A tip of the hat to the Union des cultivateurs franco-ontariens, its president, Pierre Bercier, and the other visionaries behind this project. Thanks to the Minister of Industry and the Minister of Canadian Heritage for their contributions.
