We are proud to highlight the important role played by the
people of Quebec and all
Francophones and Francophiles in Canada who have contributed to the vitality of
French here and around the world. On June 24, St.
Jean-Baptiste Day, we celebrate together our beautiful and precious
French language, as well as our unique culture.
Take advantage of this day to celebrate in your community and
show your Quebec pride.
Happy Fête nationale du Québec to everyone!"
