According to the 2011 census, about 58 percent of the population reported that their mother tongue was English and English was most often spoken at home by 66 percent of the population. About 22 percent of the population reported that their mother tongue and the language spoken at home was French. The remaining 20 percent spoke another language besides English or French when at home, and English was by far the language of the work place except in the Province of Quebec.
