CANADA – Emmanuel Macron obviously had a good time in Canada, where he was travelling, not hesitating to say that he “feels good”.
“I don’t know if France is happy on this date, but the Francophonie is for sure!” he said when he discovered murals at the residence of the France ambassador in Ottawa. These frescoes, entitled Happy France and created by the painter Alfred Courmes (1898-1993), depict French people strolling in the street brandishing a tricolor flag and a sign “Vive la France”.
“You are the bearers of the Francophonie in a minority environment, of a language, of what it carries with it,” Macron continued, surrounded by Canadian French-speaking personalities. It is “not just necessary that French resists but that we can continue to inoculate the younger generations,” he added.
