“I am honoured to be part of the mission of Ontario’s French-language public media with a talented team who, every day, are busy telling the story of and giving a voice and a platform to the Franco-Ontarian community. TFO’s educational and cultural mandate, especially for our younger generations, is essential to the vitality of the Francophonie, and I’m thrilled to be able to contribute to the building of a Francophone identity in Ontario.”
