CAPF Canadian Branch of the Assemblée parlementaire de la Francophonie

Meeting of the APF Political Committee – June 29, 2021 The Honourable Dennis Dawson, Senator, virtually attended the meeting of the APF Political Committee on June 29, 2021. Senator Dawson proposed a topic for the Canadian Branch of the APF’s next report: the use of French in international organizations. The committee accepted his proposal and decided that the project would be conducted jointly with the Education, Communication and Cultural Affairs Committee. In this meeting, the committee examined the political situation in francophone countries with special attention to the Central African Republic, Mali and Chad. The Malian and Chadian branches were de facto suspended from the APF because of the recent dissolution of their national assemblies. The committee then heard presentations from invited international experts on artificial intelligence and the 20th anniversary of the Bamako Declaration, a key text of La Francophonie affirming the commitment to democracy, the rule of law and the defence of freedoms in the francophone world. Lastly, the committee was updated on the other reports being drafted on peacekeeping operations and the prerogatives of parliaments in emergency situations.
