- fijiaarone 2y agoFewer than 25% of people in Quebec speak French fluently. Less than 1/10 use French as their primary language.
- wasabi991011 2y agoThis does not sound remotely close to my experience. According to StatCan, about 6 million out of 8 million have French as a maternal language, and the same is true for the language spoken at home. Even more have French as the "language the most spoken at home".
