Title |
Multiple Identities and Social Cohesion in Quebec: Implications for Quebec English Speaking Communities
|
Abstract |
The author shows that Anglophone Quebecers and immigrants who are Francophone and Anglophone have multiple identity profiles which differ from those of the dominant Québécois Francophone majority in the province. The author also shows that while Anglophones and Allophones feel threatened by the dominant Francophone majority, the latter feel more threatened by all minority out-groups. The author also shows that bilingual and trilingual Allophones suffer income disadvantages ranging from 34% to 12% relative to unilingual Francophones, even when controlling for level of education and years of work experience in Quebec. Results suggest that Québécois Francophones remain imbued more with the psychology of a besieged minority than a dominant majority feeling responsible for its vulnerable minorities.
