Languages in Canada

Communication between individuals has always been an important concern of societies. How often have we been confronted with the impossibility of communicating a message or an idea to somebody who speaks a different language or uses different regional expressions.

This diversity is reflected in the variety of languages spoken, their concentration or dispersion as well as the vitality of the linguistic groups using them. Come and examine the Canadian linguistic richness... Hasta luego!
