Did you know Canada.. our official languages are English and French of course but what might be surprising is that according to the 2006 census English accounts for only 59.7% of the nations first language. French is 23.2% and 17.1% of people have neither of our official languages as their mother tongue.
The province with the largest concentration of those with English as their first language is Newfoundland & Labrador, second is Prince Edward Island. The largest concentration of those with French is of course Quebec with New Brunswick coming in second.
