There are two ways of looking at the Olympic Games. First, it's an event about two weeks long during which there'll be a lot of people here. I don't mean that it's only going to be a party: it will also be an opportunity for advertising and promotion, whether it be for Canada, British Columbia, Vancouver or Francophones. The associations have the matter in hand.
However, as regards the way in which we're preparing and will experience the event and what follows, the Francophone population and tourists interested in Francophone culture need a place where they can meet. During the Games, that will involve volunteers, spectators and people who won't necessarily be participating in all the events. They'll need a place where they can be in French. There is no such place in Vancouver. I believe that establishing a place of that kind is part of the action plan of the Fondation canadienne pour le dialogue des cultures. We'd like it to become a lasting legacy for the community. So we'd like there to be a French quarter, regardless of how you want to call it, in the area around the Maison de la francophonie.
