We as mayors have a duty to protect the rich heritage bearing witness to the French fact in North America and to support a contemporary Francophonie solidly anchored in our Canadian and American communities. It is therefore with great pleasure that we invite you to join our communities — Québec City, Québec, Lafayette, Louisiana, and Moncton, New Brunswick — in founding a network of North American francophone and francophile cities. Régis Labeaume, Mayor of Québec City The network’s mission will be to draw its members’ and the world’s attention to those cities that are historically, culturally, and linguistically connected to the French fact in North America. We seek with this initiative to support the vitality of today’s francophone and francophile communities while preserving our common heritage for future generations. We look forward to counting you among us at our future events! Joey Durel, George LeBlanc, Mayor of Lafayette Mayor of Moncton 4 Overview OVERVIEW The mayors of Québec, Quebec; Lafayette, Louisiana; and Moncton, New Brunswick — all prominent French-speaking cities in North America — have proposed that a continent-wide network of francophone and francophile municipalities and communities be founded to celebrate their cities’ shared history, heritage, and expertise. MISSION SUPPORTING EACH OTHER AND OBJECTIVES TO PRESERVE FRANCOPHONE HERITAGE The primary mission of this The network members would pledge to work together proposed network of cities to preserve and develop their francophone heritage, linked historically, culturally, like traces of the colonization process or the and linguistically to the French French Regime, buildings bearing witness reality in North America would be to the French Canadian migrations to further knowledge about these and memorial sites.. communities — among themselves A possible first step might be to inventory the cultural and around the world — and to and historical heritage relating to the French reality promote their many attractions. in North America.

  • Or, the Textual Production of Michif Voices As Cultural Weaponry
    Intersections of Memory, Ancestral Language, and Imagination; or, the Textual Production of Michif Voices as Cultural Weaponry Pamela V. Sing n his overview of the historic origins in modern thought of ideas playing a central role in the current debate over matters of iden- tity and recognition, Charles Taylor emphasizes that, whether it is a Iquestion of individual or of collective identity, “we become full human agents, capable of understanding ourselves, and hence of defining our identity, through our acquisition of rich human languages of expression” (32). Languages, in this context, signify modes of expression used to iden- tify ourselves, including those of art and literature, and all evolve, are de- veloped, and are acquired in a dialogical manner — that is to say, through exchanges with others. By underscoring the socially derived character of identity, this perspective explains the importance of external recognition, both on an individual basis and on a cultural one. In this article, I intend to focus on an aesthetic that, grounded in memory, demonstrates and requests recognition for a particular type of “love of words.” The words in question belong to Michif, an oral ancestral language that, despite (or perhaps because of) its endangered status, proves to be a powerful identity symbol. Relegated to an underground existence during the latter part of the nineteenth century, the resurgence of Michif words and expressions in literary texts reminds the community to which they belong, and that they are telling (back) into existence, of its historic, cultural, and linguistic sources, thus re-laying claim to a specific and distinct, but unrecognized space on the Canadian word/landscape.

  • Québec French in Florida: North American Francophone Language Practices on the Road
    Québec French in Florida: North American Francophone Language Practices on the Road HÉLÈNE BLONDEAU Introduction Most of the sociolinguistic research on French in North America has focused on stable speech communities and long-established francophone groups in Canada or in the US, including Franco-Americans, Cajuns, Québécois and Acadians.1 However, since mobility has become an integral part of an increasingly globalized society, research on the language practices of transient groups of speakers is crucial for a better understanding of twenty-first-century francophone North America. The current article sheds light on the language practices of a group of speakers who experience a high degree of mobility and regular back-and-forth contact between francophone Canada and the US: francophone peoples of Québécois origin who move in and out of South Florida. For years, Florida has been a destination for many Canadians, some of whom have French as their mother tongue. A significant number of these people are part of the so-called “snowbird” population, a group that regularly travels south in an attempt to escape the rigorous northern winter. Snowbirds stay in the Sunshine State only temporarily. Others have established themselves in the US permanently, forming the first generation of Canado-Floridians, and another segment of the population is comprised of second-generation immigrants. By studying the language practices of such speakers, we can document the status of a mobile francophone group that has been largely under-examined in the body of research on French in North America. In this case, the mobility involves the crossing of national borders, and members of this community come in contact with English through their interactions with the American population in Florida.

  • French in Québec: a Standard to Be Described and Uses to Be Prioritized
    The French Language in Québec: 400 Years of History and Life Part Four II – French a Shared Language Chapter 13 – Which Language for the Future? 52. French in Québec: A Standard to be Described and Uses to Be Prioritized PIERRE MARTEL and HÉLÈNE CAJOLET-LAGANIÈRE The Evolution of the Standard for Written and Spoken French in Québec For more than two centuries, Québécois have lived in a twofold linguistic insecurity. On the one hand, French was rendered a second-class language by English, which was widely dominant in a number of social spheres and, on the other, its status was undermined compared to the French of France, the one and only benchmark. The “ Joual dispute” of the 1960s and 1970s crystallized opinions around a simplistic alternative: either the language of Québécois was the French of France (most usually termed International French 1, chiefly in order to indicate no dependence on the mother country), in which case every effort would have to be made to conform to it on every point, or else theirs was the popular language of those who were little educated, that is, vernacular speech, stigmatized by the term “ Joual ,” which some associated with the very identity of the Québécois. This black and white representation of the state of our language was ideological and unrealistic. It was as if French was made up of only a “standard” level, the correct written usage, and as if Québec French had only one language level, the vernacular, and even the lax and vulgar language. The Charter of the French Language, promulgated in 1977, contained no provision aimed at defining “French in Québec,” the “standard” or the “quality of the language.” However, the 1 The French Language in Québec: 400 Years of History and Life Part Four II – French a Shared Language Chapter 13 – Which Language for the Future? Policy Statement that gave birth to the Charter drew attention to the necessity of having a quality language.
