L'École Des Fans
''L'École des fans'' (French for ''School of Fans'') was a French TV show that was hosted by Jacques Martin from 1976 to 1998 on Antenne 2 then France 2. A number of children between the ages of three and ten took part in the show, during which Martin first asked them some questions and then invited each of them in turn to sing a song of the featured singer. The other children then gave marks to their peers for their performance after which, if the marks were far-off, Martin would ask them why they give such and such mark, usually leading to funny or cute explanations. Then Martin would count the marks with the singer and, invariably, everyone won with the same mark. At the end of the show they would receive a number of gifts. This was a very children-friendly show. Vanessa Paradis is likely the most well-known contestant: she appeared on the program in 1980, at age 7. Since September 2009, ''L'École des fans'' has been hosted by Philippe Risoli, on Gulli. In Quebec A Qu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

TVA (Canadian TV Network)
TVA is a Canadian French-language terrestrial television network, owned by Groupe TVA, a publicly traded subsidiary of Quebecor Media. Headquartered in Montreal, the network only has terrestrial stations in Quebec. However, parts of New Brunswick and Ontario are within the broadcast ranges of TVA stations, and two TVA stations operate rebroadcasters in New Brunswick. Since becoming a national network in 1998, it has been available on cable television across Canada. TVA is short for Téléviseurs associés (roughly translated to "Associated Telecasters").

French-Canadian
French Canadians (referred to as Canadiens mainly before the twentieth century; french: Canadiens français, ; feminine form: , ), or Franco-Canadians (french: Franco-Canadiens), refers to either an ethnic group who trace their ancestry to French colonists who settled in Canada beginning in the 17th century or to French-speaking or Francophone Canadians of any ethnic origin. During the 17th century, French settlers originating mainly from the west and north of France settled Canada. It is from them that the French Canadian ethnicity was born. During the 17th to 18th centuries, French Canadians expanded across North America and colonized various regions, cities, and towns. As a result people of French Canadian descent can be found across North America. Between 1840 and 1930, many French Canadians immigrated to New England, an event known as the Grande Hémorragie.
