Towards a New International and Interprovincial Francophone Migration Regime from Quebec to Ontario (1991-2016)
Over the past few decades, the composition of francophone migratory flows entering Ontario has changed. Using quantitative analyses based on Canadian censuses from 1991 to 2016, the authors attempt to shed light on what characterizes these new configurations. To do so, they look at the provenance of these migrants (i.e., whether they come from Quebec, Canada or abroad). In addition, they seek to understand the changing composition of these migratory flows and the new trajectories that emerge from them. The authors propose a typology of Franco-Ontarian migration regimes that allow clarifying the hypotheses that underline the importance of French-Canadian continuity, as well as the hypotheses that view it as a break with the past.
