La Francophonie is an association of countries that speak French widely or, have French as an official language. There are forty-six member countries. The organization was founded in 1960. Thee main goal of la Francophonie is to guard French heritage and culture. La Francophonie is much like a French speaking Commonwealth. Developed countries in la Francophonie help developing member countries, through education, health, agriculture and other social and science programs.
Canada is a member of la Francophonie but two Canadian provinces are also, Quebec and New Brunswick. This allows those two provinces to cast cotes independently on matters of co-operation and development but not on political matters, only the national delegate can vote on those matters.
