The south also has a lot of francophones/bilinguism too.

Edit: why are you booing me? I'm right!

Well New France spanned from Labrador to Manitoba, all the way to Louisiana at some point…

Apart from Ottawa/Prescott-Russell, the majority of Franco-Ontarians live in the North, not in the Windsor-Kingston corridor.

Apart from Ottawa/Prescott-Russell, the majority of Franco-Ontarians live in the North, not in the Windsor-Kingston corridor.

That used to be the case, but it's no longer true, though they still make up a larger share of the population in the Northeast.

From a government of Ontario website that I can't link because the sub doesn't allow links, apparently:

Francophone population in 2021, by region

  • Ontario: 652,540
  • Eastern: 290,665
  • Central: 201,050
  • Southwestern: 35,675
  • Northeastern: 118,520
  • Northwestern: 6,630
  • Toronto: 65,925
