Démographie comparée des minorités de langue officielle
|
Abstract |
Basing his study on Canadian census data for 1971, 1981, 1991 and 1996, the author concludes that from the point of view of generational replacement during these twenty-six years, the English-speaking population was doing as well in Quebec as in the rest of Canada, and much better than the French-speaking population of Quebec. He notes that the English-speaking population in Quebec first experienced a significant decline between 1971 and 1991. Over this period, the total reduction in enrollment was 20.6 percent based on mother tongue, and 14.1 percent based on the language of use. Then, between 1991 and 1996, he notes that the minority declined only slightly in terms of mother tongue, and remained stable in terms of language of use due to the assimilation of Allophones. He assumes that, even with Bill 101, Quebec English speakers will be able to assimilate immigrants, thus maintaining their proportion of English language users in the province.
