CAPF Canadian Branch of the Assemblée parlementaire de la Francophonie

The Assemblée parlementaire de la Francophonie (APF) Regional Assembly of the Americas and the Conference of Branch Chairs were held in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, from September 4–7, 2023. The Canadian delegation was composed of seven parliamentarians: five Members and two Senators.

Representatives from nine branches, the Americas secretariat and the APF secretariat were also in attendance.

The theme of the Regional Assembly of the Americas was the role of French at school, at work and in politics. Three panels were held around this theme. The work led to the adoption of three declarations:
• declaration to promote the French and Creole languages;
• declaration of solidarity with the Africa Region; and
• declaration of commitment by the Americas Region.

The declaration of solidarity with the Africa Region was tabled by the Canadian Branch.
