Une nouvelle directrice générale

C’est avec regret que le conseil d’administration du COPA National a accepté la démission de madame Randa Meshki, il y a quelques semaines. Les membres du conseil d’administration remercient madame Meshki de son dévouement et de son profond attachement envers le COPA National, au cours de ses nombreuses années de service, pendant lesquelles elle a occupé divers postes, dont celui de directrice générale, à partir de 2018. Nous souhaitons à madame Meshki le meilleur des succès dans tous ses projets.

Le processus d’embauche enclenché dernièrement a porté fruit. Madame Marie-Claude Rioux rejoindra l’équipe du COPA National à partir du 10 avril prochain à titre de directrice générale. Madame Meshki et madame Rioux travailleront ensemble jusqu’au départ de madame Meshki, le 28 avril.

Madame Rioux possède plus de 25 ans d’expérience à la direction générale d’organismes communautaires sans but lucratif. Leader communautaire reconnue et gestionnaire aguerrie, elle a occupé bon nombre de postes de haute gestion, incluant la direction générale de la Fédération des parents acadiens de la Nouvelle-Écosse, de l’Association des juristes d’expression française de la Nouvelle-Écosse et du Réseau Santé Nouvelle-Écosse. Depuis 10 ans, elle occupe le poste de directrice générale de la Fédération acadienne de la Nouvelle-Écosse.

Ses mandats à la tête de divers organismes provinciaux, au service de la Francophonie en contexte minoritaire, lui ont permis de développer des collaborations et un réseau solide à l’échelle pancanadienne, ce qui présente un atout certain pour la poursuite des objectifs stratégiques du COPA National qui s’est donné, tout récemment, un mandat pancanadien.

Depuis une vingtaine d'années, madame Rioux s’engage auprès d’organismes voués à la cause des femmes. Elle a entre autres été la présidente fondatrice de l’organisme Femmes-action, en Nouvelle-Écosse, en 2004. Madame Rioux compte aussi de nombreuses publications à son actif. Elle a également reçu plusieurs distinctions au cours de sa carrière, dont les trois plus récentes sont : la Médaille du Jubilée de platine de la reine Elizabeth II (2022), l’Ordre de la Pléiade, décerné par l’Assemblée des parlementaires de la Francophonie (2019) et l’Ordre des francophones d’Amérique, décerné par le Conseil supérieur de la langue française (2018).

Le Conseil d’administration souhaite la plus chaleureuse des bienvenues à madame Rioux.

A New Executive Director

It is with regret that the Board of Directors of COPA National was obliged to accept the resignation of Randa Meshki earlier this year. We thank Ms.       Meshki for her profound dedication and commitment to COPA National throughout her 27 years of service. In her time in the organization, she has held various important roles, including for the past five years, that of Executive Director. 

We wish Ms. Meshki great success in all her future endeavours. 

 The hiring process has resulted in our engagement of Marie-Claude Rioux, who on April 10th will join the COPA National team as Executive Director. Ms. Meshki and Ms. Rioux will work together until Ms. Meshki's departure on April 28

Ms. Rioux has more than 25 years of experience as an executive director of non-profit organizations. A recognized community leader and seasoned manager, she has held a number of senior management positions, including Executive Director of the Fédération des parents acadiens de la Nouvelle-Écosse, the Association des juristes d'expression française deAssociation des juristes d'expression française de la Nouvelle-Écosse and the Réseau Santé Nouvelle-Écosse. For the past 10 years, she has held the position of Executive Director of the Fédération acadienne de la Nouvelle-Écosse. 

 Her mandates at the head of these organizations in the service of       Francophones in a minority context have enabled Ms. Rioux to collaborate and network at a national level. This will be an asset to COPA National in the pursuit of our strategic objectives, which include a Pan-Canadian mandate.

For the past twenty years, Ms. Rioux has been involved with organizations dedicated to issues concerning women, and she was the founding president of Femmes-action in Nova Scotia in 2004. Ms. Rioux has numerous publications to her credit and has received several honours during her career. The three most recent awards were the Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Medal  (2022), the Ordre de la Pléiade awarded by the Assemblée des parlementaires de la Francophonie (2019) and the Ordre des francophones d'Amérique awarded by the Conseil supérieur de la langue française (2018). 

The Board of Directors of COPA National extends a warm welcome to Ms.       Rioux.

Les sentiments difficiles à entrevoir.

Marie-Krystel Gendron.

Il était une fois en décembre. Livia, tome 1. 390 pages.

Les Éditeurs Réunis.

Copropriétaire avec son frère Alexis du renommé bistro À table, Livia Rioux a réalisé son rêve de toujours. Le coquet restaurant situé aux abords du fleuve Saint-Laurent continue de gagner en popularité, et le duo en est particulièrement fier. Mais si la jeune femme se réjouit de pouvoir allier travail et passion, sa rupture avec Zack, survenue un an plus tôt, assombrit encore son cœur. Noël approche, et Livia décide de s’investit corps et âme dans l’organisation de cette fête qu’elle adore ainsi que de la surprise qu’elle réserve à Alexis pour son anniversaire. Lorsqu’elle faire la rencontre de James, un vieil ami de son frère, récemment engagé comme sous-chef, sa vie prend toutefois un tournant inattendu. Fébrile et étonnée de ressentir un étrange amalgame d’émotions pour cet homme qu’elle ne connaît que de réputation, elle en vient peu à peu à oublier les blessures qui peinaient à se refermer. Le mystérieux James arrivera-t-il à lui faire croire en l’amour de nouveau? À Noël, tous les miracles sont possibles!

Mon avis :

J’ai bien aimé ma lecture! On a l’impression de suivre un journal intime avec les dates inscrites en début de chaque chapitre. Les émotions sont bien présentes, et les imprévus aussi. Livia, le personnage principal, est très attachante. On veut y croire à son sentiment naissant envers James. On veut tellement qu’il se passe quelque chose entre eux. L’écriture est parsemée de légèreté et parfois des moments plus difficiles que vit les différentes personnes du roman. C’est une romance dont je m’attendais de lire pour le temps des fêtes et cela fait du bien.

Check out my latest blogpost on our magical trip to Quebec City! Please explore this incredible area of Canada, if you haven't already!

Bonsoir! I had no idea how much I would LOVE Quebec City. The architecture, the old city streets, the Nordic spas, the friendly people and the food, my goodness, the food. Ian and I wanted to book a romantic trip for just the two of us and decided on a domestic, quick flight vacation because of the additional stress surrounding everything pandemic-related with travelling, and the risk of getting…

Darryl Leroux, an associate professor of social justice and communities studies at Saint Mary's University, says at least four federal candidates from the Liberal, Conservative and Green parties have made dubious claims of Indigenous identity.

Leroux, who recently published a book called Distorted Descent: White Claims to Indigenous Identity, said all four claims seem to cling to the largely discredited idea that having one Indigenous ancestor somewhere in the past can bestow someone with an Indigenous identity.

"This idea that all you need is a long-ago blood connection — there is a consensus in Indigenous studies, as theorized and thought through by Indigenous scholars, that this is not acceptable," said Leroux.

"It actually is an attack against Indigenous self-determination and sovereignty."

Leroux singled out Marc Serré, an incumbent MP and candidate for the Liberal Party in the Nickel Belt riding in Ontario; George Canyon, a Conservative candidate for Central Nova in Nova Scotia; and Green Party candidates Amanda Kistindey, running in the Ontario riding of Don Valley West, and Jocelyn Rioux, who is running in the Quebec riding of Rimouski-Neigette-Témiscouata-Les Basques.

Serré, who was co-chair of the Liberal Indigenous caucus as an MP, recently deleted a section on his online candidate biography stating he was a "citizen of the Mattawa/North Bay Algonquin First Nation and Métis of Ontario." It remains in his biography on the web page for the Liberal Indigenous caucus.

Serré told CBC News that he has Algonquin ancestry through four lines on his father's side and and at least one on his mother's side, but admits only one link is documented and the rest are part of family lore.

Serré said his paternal great-great-grandmother was a woman named Marie Metamakin (Serré's spelling) who was a Weskarini Algonquin born in Trois Rivières, Que.

"Four generations, my Algonquin ancestry is," he said. "That we could prove."

Serré said he and his family have always felt Indigenous at their core.

"Growing up we considered ourselves more on the Métis side … my grandfather's brothers and sisters lived off the land … and clearly if you look at pictures, you see a lot of resemblance to my great-great-grandmother," said Serré.

Serré said the documented connection runs through his father, Gaetan Serré, his father's mother, Jeanne Aubin, and her mother, Marie Victoire Octavi Trudel. Serré said Trudel's mother was Marie Metamakin.

CBC News took Serré's lineage to independent Montreal-based genealogical researcher Dominique Ritchot. Richot followed the line and found that Trudel's mother was a woman named Josaphine Barette, whose parents were Vital Barette and Marcelline Lareau, who were married on Feb. 9, 1858, in Napierville, Que.

In a now-deleted section of Amanda Kistindey's profile on the Green Party's website, she identified as an Acadian-Métis with "strong ancestral heritage" which has shaped her advocacy.

Leroux said her claim as Acadian-Métis also likely hinges on a more than three-century-old ancestor. Acadian-Métis claims first surfaced in 1999 and in a 2001 court case, he said.

In an email to CBC News, Kistindey said that while she's never grown up on reserve or "even really been immersed in the culture," she is proud of her ancestral heritage.

While Kistindey did not respond to followup questions, the Green Party said in a statement it "does not verify the background of our candidates who self-identify as Indigenous."
