This article is a continuation of the article where the author examined the impact that immigration has on the linguistic situation in Canada including the influence on the number of French-speaking and English-speaking people. The average number of immigrants per year has been relatively stable since 2001. As immigration is a major issue for demographic balance and the future of linguistic duality throughout the country, it has to be examined carefully and regularly. A national census in Canada, which is conducted every five years by Statistics Canada, paints a demolinguistic portrait of the Canadian population. The previous article’s analysis was based on data from the 2011 Census of Population. The present article aims to make a comparative assessment of the periods between 2006, 2011 and 2016 Census of Population and to examine the current linguistic situation based on data from the 2016 Census of Population.
