Talk:English-speaking Quebecers

message: I think it is time to update this article with the statistics from the 2006 census, which, among other things shows an increase in the English-speaking population of Quebec. After all, we are nearing 2009 and many studies have come out already. This short analyis by StatsCan gives an overview of the basics concerning English in Quebec:
* The Evolving Linguistic Portrait, 2006 Census: Evolution of the language situation in Quebec
I believe the attribution of the increase in the anglophone population to "much fewer Anglophones leaving the province between 2001 and 2006 compared to the seven previous five-year periods" is accurate.
The new SVOLM has also been out for a while:
* Minorities Speak Up: Results of the Survey of the Vitality of Official-Language Minorities
Obviously, updating the stats implies changing much text in the article and that is the main reason why I have not done it myself already. I believe someone should take the time to do it in early 2009, maybe as a new year's resolution. ;-) -- Mathieugp (talk) 07:27, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, the statistics should be updated. The decrease in the population from ca. 1970 to 2000 is still an important fact, and the recent stabilization should be mentioned too. Joeldl (talk) 10:11, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  2006 stats on language 

message: This is the current lead paragraph:
English-speaking Quebecers (also known as Anglo-Quebecers, English Quebecers, or Anglophone Quebecers, all with the optional spelling Quebeckers; in French Anglo-Québécois, Québécois Anglophone, or simply Anglo) refers to the English-speaking (anglophone) minority of the primarily French-speaking (francophone) province of Quebec, Canada. The English-speaking community in Quebec constitutes an official linguistic minority population under Canadian law
This is rather awkwardly written and messy, thus I suggest we discuss paring it down to the essentials and move any necessary details to a section on the etymology of the term. Thoughts? Laval (talk) 23:28, 25 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed, I cleaned up this section. Safyrr (talk) 18:34, 4 June 2021 (UTC)

message: I took the liberty to remove a portion in the article's introduction, as well as reverting another portion which had been changed. In both cases, the content was either unsourced, POV pushing or outright lying, never mind the poor phrasing. This article is about English-speaking Quebecers, it isn't a platform to complain about francophones or the OQLF, and it would be appreciated if it remained that way.

replies: text: I took out a third section, which consisted of a single sentence. Though less problematic, it was little more than a weasel sentence, so I removed it. Akesgeroth (talk) 10:10, 19 March 2016 (UTC)

text: I hadn't come to this page in a while and I noticed someone has again tried to sneak in some inappropriate changes. Again, this article is not a platform to complain about the OQLF. Akesgeroth (talk) 14:22, 23 February 2018 (UTC)
