• A higher percentage of those who agree with this statement was found in Atlantic Canada (85%), followed by Quebec (83%).
• The lowest level of support is recorded in Alberta at 69%.
• Again, younger Canadians (18-34) are more supportive than those over 45, although support is strong across all age groups.

• Furthermore, 74% of Anglophones agree, compared to 82% of Francophones. It should be noted that support among Anglophones is higher with respect to the same quality of education for minorities (74%) than it is for national (65%) or provincial (64%) bilingualism.
• Women are more supportive of the principle of bilingualism than men (80% to 73%).
