This is a list of francophone communities in the Canadian province of Ontario. Municipalities with a high percentage of French-speakers in Ontario are listed. The provincial average of Ontarians whose mother tongue is French is 3.9%, with a total of 493,300 people in Ontario who identify French as their mother tongue. The majority of francophones in Ontario live in eastern and northeastern Ontario. While most communities in these areas have sizeable French minorities, there are several municipalities that have francophone majorities. This list contains municipalities with percentages of francophones higher than the provincial average. Most such places are designated as French language service areas under the provincial French Language Services Act, meaning that provincial government services must be available in French. A number of small municipalities (with populations under 1000 people) also have high francophone populations. These include the francophone-majority municipalities of Casey (71%), Dubreuilville (82%), Fauquier-Strickland (78%), Mattice-Val Côté (90%), McGarry (63%), Opasatika (85%), and Val Rita-Harty (80%). Unorganized North Cochrane District also has a French-speaking majority (64%). Small francophone-minority municipalities include Baldwin (16%), Brethour (9%), Calvin (14%), Coleman (15%), Evanturel (13%), Essa (6%), Gauthier (8%), Harley (40%), Harris (39%), Hilliard (19%), Hudson (18%), James (45%), Kerns (11%), Killarney (13%), Larder Lake (34%), Matachewan (27%), Mattawan (15%), Nairn and Hyman (14%), Temagami (9%), The North Shore (22%), Papineau-Cameron (26%), Thornloe (33%), and White River (18%). There are also a few small unincorporated communities (governed by local service boards) in Northeastern Ontario with sizeable francophone communities. These include Cartier (29%), Foleyet (26%), Gogama (56%), Jogues (91%), Sultan (40%) and Thorne (43%). ==See also== *Franco-Ontarian *List of townships in Ontario *Francophone Association of Municipalities of Ontario 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of francophone communities in Ontario」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
