ALLÔ MAILLARDVILLE PODCAST
Allô Maillardville, Maillardville' monthly Francophone and francophile podcast
Listen to the Francophone and Francophile community of Coquitlam and its region vibrate through various interviews and capsules (nature, sports, cultural news, discoveries, gastronomy...). Every month, our intergenerational and multicultural team of volunteers gathers around the microphone to share with you new experiences and news in the region and its surroundings.
