Canada's francophone population
Almost a quarter of Canadians (24.91 percent) cite French
as their mother tongue.
The remaining distribution is:
English: 62.89 percent
Other: (Italian, Chinese, German, etc.): 15.02 percent
Aboriginal: 0.71 percent
The total exceeds 100 percent because the census permitted the
selection of more than one mother tongue
