Population and politics in a plural society: the changing geography of Canada's linguistic groups

Auteur :
KAPLAN, D.H.

Description :
The paper examines the role of population change as it reflects and shapes the political and cultural relations between French and English speakers in Canada. These two groups are concentrated in different regions. These questions are conditioned by the linguistic landscape and by the nature and direction of population change. Linguistic affiliation determines one's propensity to remain within a region and guides the choice of destinations. The bifurcation of Canada into unilingual regions will be renforced.
