BACKGROUND
The London-Sarnia
Regional Council of ACFO was established in
1983 in order to
pave the way for Francophones residing in the
counties of Elgin, Lambton, Middlesex,
Oxford and Perth (over 12,000 people) to unite.
While sharing the AFO’s objectives
(Assemblée de la francophonie de l’Ontario),
the ACFO of London-Sarnia is primarily a
regional development organization responsible
for initiating and mobilizing the necessary
resources that will encourage the French speaking
community to achieve its potential.
