English spoken in
Canada. English is the
first language, or "mother tongue", of approximately 19 million
Canadians or 58% of the population, which is relatively low due to strong French (c. 22%) and
allophone (non-English, non-French, 21%) population segments (based on 2011 Census data). However, 28 million use English as their dominant language. 82% of Canadians outside
Quebec speak English fluently, but within
Quebec the figure drops to just 7.7

Quebec French.
