Title
Le comportement démographique des groupes linguistiques à Montréal
Abstract
Using census data from the mid-1970s to the mid-1980s, the author analyzed the fertility behaviour, internal migration and mortality patterns of Anglophones, Francophones and Allophones living on the Island of Montreal and Île Jésus. His analysis determined that certain non-negligible disparities existed in the demographic behaviour of the three linguistic groups. On the other hand, the three groups have the same fertility level and the same propensity to migrate; only differentials in mortality were observed. The natural growth rate of Francophones on the Island of Montreal was (in 1985-1987) slightly inferior than that of the other two groups, but in the metropolitan region it was superior. On the whole however, taking into account internal migration, the Francophone population living on the Island of Montreal and Île Jésus had the highest growth rate and the Anglophone population the lowest growth rate (in fact it was negative).
