Francophone Community: University and Community Colleges

francophone community: So, too, was the plan to build the new French university in Toronto by 2020, according to CTV. It's a question of money, the government said. The announcement was buried at the bottom of an economic update Doug Ford's Ontario budget Thursday -- the office of the French-language commissioner was abolished. The deficit is real; our debt is real, said Ontario Finance Minister Vid Fedeli. The province has French community colleges and a bilingual university, but no university francophones can call their own.
