The CRF aims to bring together all Francophiles and Francophones on campus for activities and events in French. Whether they are useful, entertaining, or inspiring, there will be an activity or event perfect for you.
In April, we presented The Secret Order (L’Ordre secret), a fascinating documentary from Acadian filmmaker, Phil Comeau. Watch the trailer.
We hosted many conferences during the Fall 2023 semester, covering topics including the history of French in Fredericton by Maurice Basque, hybrid languages and their comparison to Chiac in New Brunswick by Dr. Don Duncan, Francophone immigration with Dr. Leyla Sall, and we even celebrated our official inauguration. Prof. Sophie Lavoie wrote an article about our conference with Dr. Leyla Sall. View the article.
During the Winter 2024 semester, we had an assortment of writing workshops, film nights, conferences, and guest speakers. Some highlights include a glimpse into Norelice Mboutou's exposition called Black HAIRitage, a talk-show with BAIE, ecofeminism and French writing with Gabrielle Filteau-Chiba, and a conversation with former Lieutenant Governer Herménégilde Chiasson.
