The Air Cadet League\u2019s Effective Speaking competition is held at all levels (local, regional, provincial and national) and aims to enable cadets to improve their public presentation skills, gain greater self-confidence and communicate their messages more effectively. WO2 Kaeli Eklo will have the honour of representing Quebec and the Ottawa Valley at the national competition, to be held virtually on May 4, 2024. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Effective Speaking competition is divided into two parts. First, all candidates must present a prepared speech lasting 5 to 6 minutes on a topic they select themselves from themes announced by the Air Cadet League of Canada. For the second part, they had to present an improvised speech lasting 2 to 3 minutes. The theme of this speech was the same for all candidates, and they had just 3 minutes to prepare. This year, the theme of the impromptu speech was: Climate change and the environment are currently major issues for mankind. In your opinion, what are the 2 or 3 most important measures that today\u2019s youth can adopt to improve the environment? It goes without saying that all the participating cadets gave us outstanding performances. Congratulations to all contestants ! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, this event would not have been possible without the involvement of our dedicated volunteers and the participation of our guest judges, Capt Fran\u00e7ois Dutil, Mr Andr\u00e9 Lepage and Ms Eileen Vivan. We would also like to highlight the participation of Clara Marcoux and Alek Guitard, both cadets until recently in the Quebec City region, as Masters of Ceremonies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
