This new funding comes in addition to the envelopes already budgeted.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"527579\" data-originallang=\"fr\">This additional funding has been allocated for after- school and cultural activities and for community centres, and will help enhance the benefits related to linguistic duality for children, such as exchanges and programs.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"527580\" data-originallang=\"fr\">This good news was received warmly by our partners in the official language minority communities, such as the FCFA. That is what it means to have a modern and dynamic vision of Canada's Francophonie and official languages. That is our true Canada.</p>",
