So I would say the earliest memories with these languages -- I have a lot of them, just because there were so many languages that I was exposed to growing up. I would say that with French, maybe, there weren't as many memories because that was my first language and that was the language that my parents spoke to me when I was a kid.

I remember one time, when we were living in Vancouver because... like, when I was really young, maybe around the ages of like two or three or four, around that age. Because Vancouver is so Anglophone, I was speaking English, I was listening to TV in English, and I was going to daycare in English and everything.

So then one day, I told my mom like, "Okay, from now on, we're speaking English at home."

And she was like, "Okay." And then she started speaking English to me, and I was like, "This doesn't feel right."

So I was like, "Okay, let's just switch back to French at home."

So I think that would be one of my earliest memories of French.
