The importance of the English language for immigration to Canada
16 September 2024
For individuals who select Canada as their immigration destination, it is essential to note that the country has two official languages: French and English. English was the primary tongue of 58.1% of the total population, as reported in The Canadian Encyclopedia's 2016 census data, while 21.4% of the population was designated as French. English was 74% of the population's primary language, with French following at 23%. It is logical to assume that, as a prospective emigrant, you will need to acquire and refine your language skills. There are various methods to practise the English language; one is to take lessons with an online tutor. For example, the LiveXP platform has 100s of tutors for the most popular and rarer languages.
