Are we talking the language? West of Quebec French is rare.
Ontario has some significant pockets of french Canadians
Ottawa comes to mind.
Yeah in Sask I've encountered two french speaking people (first language Quebecers)in the last decade. Both spoke English.
Both commented on how people's expressions turn negative when they hear the accent. Which I can understand as it sounds very gutteral and unpleasant to the ear to me as well.
Plenty in Manitoba but they'll also speak English. St Boniface is an entire neighborhood in Winnipeg where French is primary, including the arret signs. There's a number of towns around the province where it's the primary language as well. Bilingual of course but French is the usual spoken language.
