“Comme chaque année, le mois de mars nous a permis de célébrer la Francophonie à travers le monde, dans toute sa richesse et sa diversité. Le Canada est fier de faire partie de la grande famille francophone et de contribuer au rayonnement de la langue française, une des deux langues officielles du Canada et une part essentielle de notre culture et de notre identité. Je félicite chaleureusement tous les participants du concours «Dis-moi dix mots qui (ne) manquent pas d’air!» qui, par leur créativité, ont su nous inspirer et témoigner du dynamisme de la culture francophone d’aujourd’hui et de demain. Bravo à tous, et nos sincères remerciements aux partenaires qui ont rendu possible cette belle activité.
