These will include information on the availability of French-medium schooling and other kinds of institutional support of French, and statistics on the French mother tongue population- e.g., retention of French at home, use of French in other domains of society, bilingualism in English, birth rate, rate of linguistics reproduction, etc. This examination will lead to an assessment of the chances of short- and longer-term survival of these francophone communities.enMaintenance of French -- CanadaAnglophone CanadaMinority Language MaintenanceBook Chapter
