Does Contact between Quebec Francophones and ‘English’ Heighten or Reduce Insecurities about the Preservation of French?
|
| Abstract |
A November 2012 survey by the Association for Canadian Studies sought to determine whether Francophone respondents agreed with the presumption that contact with Anglophones and/or with English media (television, movies, etc.) diminishes the use of French and heightens existing insecurities felt by Francophones. The findings reveal that insecurities are most deeply felt not by those Francophones with the highest degree of contact with Anglophones or with English culture but amongst those with little or no contact.
