English-Language Early Childhood and Child Care Services in Quebec, 2001 and 2016
|
| Abstract |
The authors analyze the change from 2001 to 2016 in the number and proportion of young children likely to attend an English-language childcare service, as well as the number and proportion of child care workers using English at work in Quebec, with data from the 2001 and 2016 censuses of population. The authors found that 45,280 children (ages 1 to 4) had at least one parent who spoke English most often at home, up from 40,255 children in 2001. In contrast, the proportion of English-speaking children in the province decreased slightly from 2001 (13.2 percent) to 2016 (12.7 percent). However, this proportion increased during the period studied in the Outaouais, Laval, Montérégie and Nord-du-Québec regions. In Laval, the proportion of English-speaking children rose from 19.0 percent in 2001 to 23.0 percent in 2016, while in Montreal it dropped from 29.8 percent to 25.2 percent over the same period. In 2016, 7,990 (10.6 percent) of childcare workers used English most often at work. In 2001, 4,030 (9.6 percent) of childcare workers used English most often at work.
