    I think it's growing, because immigrants who are not from English speaking countries are assigned to French speaking schools. In addition the Government makes great efforts at developing and enhancing the purity of French, by requiring businesses like grocery stores and big supermarkets like Target to adopt French names.In addition the birth rates are higher in Francophone Quebec than in the Anglophone Canadian provinces

    I think this is an excellent policy to prevent cultural imperialism from foreign countries to infiltrate and destroy local culture, idioms, and practices.

    Hope this helps
