French (Canada) in the United States

Who speaks French (Canada), and where they turn up.

Quebec French (français québécois) is the dominant variety of French in Canada. It differs from Metropolitan French in vocabulary, preposition usage, anglicism borrowing patterns, and legal and government terminology.

U.S. businesses with Canadian customers, distributors or subsidiaries request Quebec French for Canadian Office of the Commissioner of Official Languages compliance, Loi 96 / Bill 101, and Health Canada / CFIA labelling.
