This report (50 pages, in French) explores the experiences of French-minority caregivers living in Northern Ontario. It highlights the challenges related to accessing care and services, particularly due to language barriers and distance from major urban centres.

The report presents the main findings of a collaborative research project conducted between 2022 and 2023. A total of 20 participants took part in semi-structured interviews, and an informal gathering was organized to give caregivers a chance to share their experiences.
