My latest newsletter is out now. It includes local community news, upcoming events, support services, and updates on the issues I am raising at Queen’s Park — from youth support and student affordability to Francophonie Month, the Vanier Sugar Festival, and more. Take a look and stay connected with what is happening in Ottawa–Vanier.

In my February newsletter, I highlight a busy month in Ottawa–Vanier and across Ontario, including Black History Month activities, Winterlude, and upcoming community events.

At Queen’s Park, I outline my role within the Ontario Liberal Caucus as Critic for the Attorney General, Francophone Affairs, and French Language Education, and as Liberal House Leader—focused on accountability, protecting democratic institutions, and defending and strengthening French-language services and education.

The newsletter also recaps recent local and regional engagements, including the ROMA conference, the launch of Retraite en Action’s new French-language programming for retirees, an interview on the importance of Franco-Ontarian bookstores, celebrations with MP Mona Fortier, the 6th anniversary of the Maison de la francophonie d’Ottawa, and the Vanier BIA AGM. Events and opportunities listed include Winterlude (Jan. 30–Feb. 16), Ontario Trillium Foundation Capital Grants (deadline March 4), and the Coldest Night of the Year walk on February 28 in support of The Mission.

With 99% of young people online and rising digital risks, Ontario must stay proactive. This bill ensures we dedicate every October to boosting digital literacy and helping families navigate online safety

Classes are too big, teachers need support, and students—especially those with special needs—deserve more resources. Investing in our children’s education is investing in our future. It’s time to put kids first.

The French Language Services Act is 39 years old!

Let's celebrate our language rights and continue to build an Ontario where living, learning, and thriving in French is not a privilege, but a right.

I feel privileged to have known Bernard Grandmaître, a neighbour, friend, and exceptional politician. His leadership and vision have left their mark on the history of Franco-Ontarians, and his legacy continues to strengthen our communities. His passing leaves a great void in our province and in the heart of the Franco-Ontarian community.
