That's great, but I still live here and have my whole life. How can you dispute any of this?

Since you're such a fan of wikipedia too....
English and French are the mother tongues of 59.7% and 23.2% of the population respectively,[119] and the languages most spoken at home by 68.3% and 22.3% of the population respectively.[120] 98.5% of Canadians speak English or French (67.5% speak English only, 13.3% speak French only, and 17.7% speak both).[121] English and French Official Language Communities, defined by First Official Language Spoken, constitute 73.0% and 23.6% of the population respectively.
How can a language which only dominates 23% of people be the dominant language? Only 13% of the people here only speak French.
