      The majority of people in Toronto are bilingual, but with combinations such as English/Cantonese, English/Italian, English/Tagalog, English/Russian, English/Punjabi, English/Farsi etc.

    This one really interests me Anthony. Victor here again in Flint, Mi. I sent this video to Madame R. a French Canadian who teaches French in a high school here near Flint. Sometimes I sub for her. I finally made it to Quebec last summer and it was great to speak French there. Next up, Montreal. Unfortunately many high and junior high schools here are cutting back on their language classes. Spanish is doing well, French- so so and German has really taken a hit. Some of the better high schools do actually offer Chinese or Japanese by correspondence. Fortunately, Mott Community college (in Flint) and the University of Michigan Flint offer all these languages and more. My Brazilian Portuguese tutor is hoping to convince Mott to start a Portuguese program in a year or two.

      French is the official language of Canada. It's like English. It has official status. Glendon was founded as a bilingual university college in the 1960s? I was a student there in 1978-1979. I'm sorry that it never became a French university college. The francophones in Ontario are hoping to get a French university going in Toronto shortly . I wish them the best of luck.

It never was taught to me that French was the other language of our country and not a foreign language. I'm sure every Quebecois knows that English is a Canadian official language though.

    "Canadian bilingualism" is a joke. Quebec is practically French only (with some exceptions in Montreal and on a more limited basis in Quebec city). New Brunswick is theoretically bilingual but for the most part English-speaking only. Very few Canadians outside of Quebec and New Brunswick speak French and yes that even includes Ontario. Sorry but even the U.S. has a greater claim to bilingualism in regards to Spanish than Canada does with French.

Only 8% of anglophones are bilingual English-French and without Québec's anglophones it is only 6%. Even the USA are more bilingual than us.

    Those saying that Canadian bilingualism is a joke or untrue don't know what is meant by "bilingualism". The country as a whole is, meaning both federal and provincial governments provide services in both and all products sold generally have English and French on the packages to accommodate both. Individual provinces, however, can be considered either unilingual for either language or bilingual depending on demographics. Quebec is the only unilingual French province and New Brunswick the only bilingual province due to significant communities of each. Even the provinces that are unilingual English-speaking usually have compulsory French lessons everyday in school as well as French-immersion for those that wish to do do so. On top of that, there are also French schools in the English provinces and English ones in Quebec. As a result a significant part of our population are fluent in both.

      Some foreigners learn "international French" at university. They don't learn Quebec French in Toronto generally. I was at Glendon for a years many decades ago and most of our profs were immigrants. Francophone, sure, but they spoke European French. It is probably the same at Queen's U. and at the University of Toronto. Actually, when i was at Glendon, the York main campus at a distance from Glendon had more French courses than Glendon did! True!

      A large amount of people who live in Montreal, Quebec City, or New Brunswick are bilingual. Outside of the major Quebecois cities, many people only speak french, whereas outside of Quebec & New Brunswick, relatively few people speak french. There are of course some Ontario towns along the Quebec border which speak french also, as well as a small french community in Manitoba (it was once a much larger community.)

      1/3 of the Canadian population speak french either as a first language or can at least understand it. The reason why people going to Canada might not notice french a lot is because most of french people live in Quebec, which make up for about 23% of the Canadian population, the remaining 7% mostly come from the maritime and some small community in the other province, the best place to go in Canada if you want to see bilingualism is probably New-Brunswick as it is the only province to have both french and english as a second language, in Quebec most people will mostly speak french and in the rest of Canada they will speak english.

      Au Canada, comme dans tous les pays du Nouveau-Monde, les langues européenes ont toutes évoluées pour réfléter l'histoire et la société des gens qui les parlent. Il est normal qu'un Brésilien ne parle pas comme un Portugais. De même, il est normal qu'un Canadien ne parle pas français de la même façon qu'un Français. Notre langue contient des archaïsmes et des amérindianismes. De plus, nous avons inventé des mots comme traversier et courriel pour remplacer des emprunts à l'anglais.

    Quebec lots of French of course but they aren't the only speakers of French in Canada. Now on to Acadians who are a bit different than Quebecers New Brunswick is the only officially bilingual (meaning French English) province French in the Maritimes is mainly if not only Acadian people. Nova Scotia has quite a few Acadian people. Here in PEI has Acadian people mainly in the town Wellington and surrounding area. Ontario of course Ottawa area other than that I don't know. Then there is the prairies mostly Manitoba, Saskatchewan where Metis people speak French and possibly some First Nations languages. Honourable mention the state of Maine it's between the Maritimes and Quebec so loads of French history there and from what I can read about there are speakers of French there.

    A Dilettante Presumptuous Opinion: You cannot legislate French Culture into law. It will never work. The answer is a simple. French Canadians Families must have more children then other new immigrants and new Canadians French Canadians must have what used to be normal sized families, such 6. 8, 10, 12 children. Having larger family means a having a Mother at home and the Father working. It is well known that having a Mother at home and the Father working is the best way to raise children People have forgotten we all had roles in society. This can happened happen by having larger families which means there will always be a very high populations of French Canadians. That's how you keep French Canadian Culture.

Ca ne marchera jamais. La réponse est simple. Français Canadiens Les familles doivent avoir plus d'enfants que les autres nouveaux immigrants et les nouveaux Canadiens Français les Canadiens doivent avoir ce qui était autrefois des familles de taille normale, comme 6. 8, 10, 12 enfants. Avoir une famille plus grande signifie avoir une mère à la maison et le père qui travaille. Il est bien connu que le fait d'avoir une mère à la maison et le père qui travaille est la meilleure façon d'élever des enfants Les gens ont oublié que nous avions tous des rôles dans la société. Cela peut se produire en ayant de plus grandes familles, ce qui signifie qu'il y aura toujours une population très élevée de Canadiens Français.
