Wooohooo ! That is great, tuesday the 27 I participated to the French Debating Tournament Of Ontario. Jean Christophe Martel (also of friend in my class at Lycee Claudel) was the best debator. I was the number 5 (I was the youngest one.)(the score were very tight for the first five). And we two won the trophy of the best debating team.
The three debating of the night were :
1) QSRQ que tout enfant qui emet dans ses travaux scolaires des propos menacant la securite de la societe en soit tenu criminellement responsable. (=All students that put threats to the society's security in their school work must be criminaly responsible.) We were as the oposition, me as the member of the opposition.
2)same subject, but as the governement, me as the prime minister.
3) ant then, a debat that they gaved us 30 minute to prepare "QSRQ que tout enfant doit avoir plus de 2 parents" (=All children must have more than 2 parents) We were the government , me as the member of the government.
It was a great night, with before the announcement of the scores, everybody going in front of us and telling us about our problem with the teacher, etc... for the fun. J.C. did a great imitation of our spnish teacher !!

I want to clear up a thing : In my team (as in all debating team) we are two ; Jean Christophe and me.
But we could not have gone to the other tournament becasue we are 1 year to young.

""I will now present my official refutation :
Ms. president, I believe the oposition has gone to far in its judgement. I can not believe the society could let a single laugh come out of their mouth for such a stupid comment as the honorable Mr. EGG-D made.
And that is why, Ms. president, My governement and I, the prime minister, believe that all of the society....""

I used to debate, but I dropped it, seeing how it conflicted with my hockey schedule, and I probably could have been good, considering my school is probably has the best debate team in the southwest, and top 10 in the nation.
