In front of the University, on Main Street (between Laframboise and Guigues Halls)
Members of the community are invited to gather in celebration of Franco-Ontarian Day.
The event will begin at 8:45 a.m. with a flag raising ceremony in front of the University on Main St (between Laframboise and Guigues Halls).
Special guest Michel Prévost, a renowned local historian, will share a few words on the history of Ottawa and the deep roots of the Francophonie in our region — roots that have long been intertwined with ÐÔ°®Ñ§ÌÃ’s own history.
Following the flag raising, a new tree will be planted in the Forest of La Francophonie, which was established last year. The addition of the tree symbolizes the continued growth and vitality of the Franco-Ontarian community at ÐÔ°®Ñ§ÌÃ, in Ottawa and across the province.
We look forward to celebrating this moment of pride and collective memory with you.
