About Canadian Parents for French (CPF)

Canadian Parents for French (CPF) was founded in 1977 by parents who wanted to ensure that children would have the opportunity to become bilingual in the Canadian school system. 

CPF has evolved into a proactive national network with provincial Branches and Offices and some 125+ Chapters in communities nationwide.

CPF is a nationwide, research-informed, volunteer organization that furthers bilingualism by promoting opportunities to learn and use French for all those who call Canada home.
