Speeches / How to write an persuasive speech? Any suggestion for a good topic? [6]

Hi!
I found this forum through google as I try to find a topic for my persuasive speech..
I come from Quebec where French is the official language and I have only done "English as a Second Language" courses before. I moved to Toronto in September, so I'm now taking real English courses and I am very nervous. I am very bad in English, even when I was in Quebec having English as a Second Language courses...I have absolutely 0 confidence on my English...

Today our teacher assigned us a persuasive speech, on whatever topic we are interested.
But I have no idea how to write a persuasive speech, and I have also no idea which topic I should choose to make it easier for me (or for my English level..)...

I'm hoping that this forum can help me..
Thanks a lot in advance!!
(ps.It's my first time posting stuff in a forum,I'm sorry if I did anything wrong...)

Thank you!!!
I'm sure this will help me to improve the quality of my speech!~

I think whatever topic I pick I will still have to do research on it..-_-||

Do you think "child soldiers" can be a good topic??Like, calling people to act to stop the use of child soldiers?
I think this topic is easy to get "emotional"(??)...
