This letter is in support of CPF Tofino-Ucluelet’s efforts to introduce an Early French Immersion program into their community. The letter outlines numerous advantageous reasons why CPF BC & Yukon Branch supports CPF Tofino-Ucluelet’s efforts to establish an Early French Immersion program in their community. CPF BC & Yukon strongly encourages School District #70 to introduce Early French Immersion in Tofino-Ucluelet.
Canadian Parents for French (CPF) is a national network of parent volunteers who work to promote and ensure quality and equitable access to French second language opportunities for all youth. The CPF BC & Yukon Branch is by far the largest in Canada with over 8,100 members belonging to over 50 local Chapters. In a single year, CPF volunteers across BC and Yukon contribute more than 40,000 hours to organizing French second-language extracurricular activities to help French come alive outside the classroom. In short, Canadian Parents for French strongly believes that in a nation where both French and English are official languages, all children should have access to a quality bilingual education.
