Most people in Canada do not speak French as their first language. English is actually the most widely spoken language in Canada. However, French is one of Canada's official languages, and it is the first language of the majority of people in the province of Quebec, as well as in some parts of New Brunswick and Ontario. Additionally, the Canadian government has implemented policies to protect the French language and promote bilingualism.
