Official Languages committee  I think efforts are needed to counter linguistic insecurity. It's a point that really should be taken into consideration. Thank you.

Official Languages committee  Thank you for asking. I would describe the obstacles that an immigrant might come up against as follows. I personally encountered problems related to speaking the language. Linguistic insecurity truly affects most newcomers in a country where everyone is speaking a language they do not know.

Official Languages committee  I haven't necessarily experienced this problem in the field, but when I arrived, I encountered it. Not all the time, but based on my experience, yes.

Official Languages committee  Thank you. Mr. Chair, committee members, thank you for having invited me to appear in connection with your study on francophone immigration in Canada and Quebec. My name is Jacqueline Djiemeni Ngangoum, a grade 11 student atx Ronald-Marion high school. I'm from Cameroon and I immigrated to Canada two years and a few months ago.
