Aging populations have significantly increased in recent decades, especially in the Francophone population living in linguistic minority situations in Canada. Our secondary analysis of the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) shows that a large proportion of Francophone seniors have no high school diploma and are in the bottom income quintile. Multivariate analyses of the data show that poverty determinants such as income and education affect poverty among older people, but that language and belonging to the Francophone minority have a specific impact. The latter constitutes new data.
