The objective of this study is to assess the impact of francophone parents’ socioeconomic status on eating habits, cooking skills, BMI (body mass index) and the food environment of their children in New Brunswick. The target population consists of parents of children in grades 5 and 6 in the southern French-speaking district of the province of New Brunswick. The data was collected through semi-structured telephone interviews with 43 parents, as well as using online questionnaires with 120 other parents. The quantitative analysis of the data shows statistically significant correlations between variables examined in this study. Specifically, the results found that a higher family income had a positive influence on the daily consumption of vegetables and fruits of the children. In addition, higher levels of education had a positive influence on the children’s preparation of their own snacks and on the barriers perceived by parents with regards to the involvement of their children in cooking activities.
