English Canadian

An English Canadian or Anglo-Canadian refers to either a Canadian of English ethnic origin and heritage, or to an English-speaking, or Anglophone, Canadian of any ethnic origin; it is used primarily in contrast with French Canadian.〔 "a Canadian of English ancestry or whose principal language is English, especially as opposed to French"〕 Canada is an officially bilingual state, with English and French official language communities. Immigrant cultural groups ostensibly integrate into one or both of these communities, but often retaining elements of their original cultures. The term English-speaking Canadian is sometimes used interchangeably with English Canadian.
Although many English-speaking Canadians have strong historical roots traceable to England or other parts of the British Isles, the population as whole belongs to a multitude of ethnic backgrounds. They or their ancestors came from various European, Asian, Caribbean, African, Latin American, and Pacific Island cultures, as well as French Canada and North American Aboriginal groups. As such, although the office of the Governor General is said to alternate between "French" and "English" persons, the two most recent former Governors General (Adrienne Clarkson, an English-speaking Chinese Canadian; and Michaëlle Jean, a French-speaking Haitian Canadian) show that this refers to language and not culture or ethnicity.
In addition to the terms "English Canadian" and "Canadian", the terms "Anglophone Canadian" and "Anglo-Canadian" are also used.〔Government of Canada website ''Minister Dion Asserts that Anglophone Canadians are Becoming More and More Supportive of French'', retrieved 2009-05-05 ()〕〔Wall Street Journal, ''Severe Winter Storm: Conan O'Brien finds Anglophone Canadians can't take a joke about Francophone ones'', by Mark Steyn, retrieved 2009-05-05 ()〕〔Review by Kevin Dowler of ''A Border Within: National Identity, Cultural Plurality and Wilderness,'' by Ian Angus, Canadian Journal of Communication, Vol 23, No 3 (1998), retrieved 2009-05-05 ()〕〔Randy Widdis, ''With Scarcely a Ripple: Anglo-Canadian Migration into the United States and Western Canada, 1880-1920'', (Canadian Association of Geographers Series in Canadian Studies in Ethnic History Series) McGill-Queen's University Press, 1998〕
==Geographic distribution==
The following table shows the English-speaking population of Canada's provinces and territories. The data are from Statistics Canada.
Figures are given for the number of single responses "English" to the mother tongue question, as well as a total including multiple responses one of which is English.
Notably, 46% of English-speaking Canadians live in Ontario, and 30% in the two western provinces of British Columbia and Alberta. The most monolingual province is Newfoundland and Labrador at 98.5%. English-speakers are in the minority only in Quebec and Nunavut. In the cases of Quebec and New Brunswick, the vast majority of the non-Anglophone population speaks French; in the case of Nunavut, the people speak a non-official language of Canada, Inuktitut.
