Statistics Canada is releasing today four short portraits that provide an overview of the trends observed from 2001 to 2016 for the French language and the population whose first official language spoken is French in the four Atlantic provinces of Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
The documents provide information taken from the Census of Population and National Household Survey on the population who reported having French as their mother tongue, French spoken at home or used at work as well as those who speak French well enough to sustain a conversation.
