Statistics Canada provides four definitions of "francophone". As I said, according to Statistics Canada, my children are not francophone. There are 3,600 people in the Yukon who speak French. Pure francophones who do not have multi-cultural families make up approximately 4% of the population, which is equal to 1,300 people. That is the only population whose number and relative weight in comparison with the general population has increased. So, our percentage continues to increase, as do our numbers.
