Former first lady Michelle Obama talks education, gender equality in Montreal
MONTREAL — Former first lady Michelle Obama delighted and captivated her Montreal audience on Monday night, highlighting education and gender equality in an hour-long chat.
Months after her husband delivered a speech to a sold-out crowd, it was her turn to take the stage.
Obama took part in an hour-long question-and-answer session in front of a sold-out crowd of more than 10,000 people at the city’s convention centre.
Obama highlighted the importance of education for youth to reach their full potential, regardless of the colour of their skin.
