4. Anglophone.

Author

Panjabi, Ranee K. L.

Subjects
English-speaking Canadians, Canadian English language, Native language
Abstract

In Canada, a multicultural, multiethnic society composed largely of immigrants, language is not just a means of communication, but a significant aspect of identity. Anglophones are Canadians whose first and dominant language is English. In contrast, francophones are those whose first and dominant language is French. Residents of Canada who have a first language other than English or French are categorized as allophones. This category does not include those who speak First Nation languages. English is the dominant commercial, administrative, and social language in all Canadian provinces except Quebec. However, at the federal level, Canada is bilingual, and all government services are provided in English and French.
