A rally is being held at Queen’s Park today to show support for the creation of a new French language university in Ontario.

Members of the Sudbury Francophone community will join others from across the province at the rally today demanding the provincial government move forward to the next step of establishing a transitional governance committee.

Nickel Belt M-P-P France Gelinas introduced Bill 104 and saw it pass second reading last November.

She says the time has come.

Gelinas says it’s a fact that more Francophones would pursue a post-secondary education if it’s available in French.
