Canadian Parents for French is pleased to announce the 15 winners of the 2022 national finals of Concours d’art oratoire and to share their winning videos with you. Concours d’art oratoire is a great opportunity for students to showcase their French-speaking abilities.
As of last year, Concours d’art oratoire has moved to a virtual competition in which the top three winning students from their provincial or territorial competitions qualify to submit their original video speech. The video submissions are a great example of how we can innovate and create something new and meaningful in changing times. We received a total of 51 videos which met the national eligibility criteria to compete in one of five categories.
We congratulate all participants on their success, and we hope to inspire others and continue to champion the benefits of learning and using their second official language throughout their life.
