French is the official language and 82 per cent of the population speak it as a first language. 35 per cent of the population speak English either as a first language or in addition to French.

Places To Go
Québec City and Montréal offer some of the best nightclubs and cabarets to be found anywhere in Canada. In Montréal the action seldom begins before 22:00 and usually continues until 03:00 the next morning. Nightlife is concentrated in the western part of the downtown area along Crescent and Bishop Streets and around St.-Catherine Street, where there are many bars, restaurants and clubs of all kinds. For a particularly French flavour, try the many clubs, bars, restaurants, cafes and bistros further east around Saint-Denis and Saint-Laurent.
