“Francophonie” Episode
“Francophonie” Episode
Last week, I had the opportunity to meet with the General and Executive Director of the organization Canoraa Inc., Jacques Yamdjie. Canoraa is a francophone organization focused on offering services and resources to the young community of Toronto. They have dedicated their time to offering workshops, employment resources, volunteer experience, as well as advocating for the awareness and prevention of youth crime in communities. In the episode, we discussed Jacques Yamdjie’s personal experience integrating into Ontario as an immigrant, multiculturalism, francophone services and his thoughts on the changes within the francophone community. Additionally, we talked about their mission and future goals for Canoraa. This organization has done fantastic work in outreaching with the young francophone community of Toronto, allowing them to network with each other and develop more abilities with those learning experiences and the workshops.
