We can already see how our communities have evolved compared to 20, 30, or even 50 years ago. Looking ahead, we can imagine new perspectives and new talents enriching and expanding what already exists. It\u2019s an exciting time, and we\u2019re truly looking forward to what the future holds.\u201d\u00a0Pit Turenne, Chair of the CDEM Board of Directors<\/em><\/p>\n CDEM\u2019s National Francophone Immigration Week Program<\/strong><\/p>\n 1.\u00a0<\/strong>Virtual Workshop \u2013 How to Immigrate and Settle in Manitoba<\/p>\n Wednesday, November 5, 2025 – 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.<\/p>\n This interactive workshop is designed for individuals who wish to learn more about the immigration process, available programs, and best practices for successful professional and social integration in Manitoba. 2.
