One of the three projects is in a Frenchâ€" speaking community, and throughout the program, learnâ€" ing the second language is a priority.

One Waterloo area participant said that the rules and regulaâ€" tions must be adhered to strictly, and that $1 a day spending money made life difficult at times. But generally, most seem to find Katimavik a worthwhile experiâ€" ence â€" a breathing space after secondary school in which they can learn about and contribute to our nation.
