	Canadian French - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Canadian French is the common term for naming the regional dialects or varieties of French found in Canada.
		As such, it is a misnomer, even as an umbrella term, since there is no single Canadian dialect, regardless of what part of the country francophones live or were raised in.
		Also spoken in parts of the U.S. state of Maine, Acadian French is the ancestor of Cajun French, which is spoken in the south-central region of Louisiana.

	Canadian French - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Using "Canadian French" instead of "Acadian French" and "Quebec French", either separately or combined is akin to over-applying the label "British English" despite significant historical and linguistic differences.
		As a result, when most people refer to "Canadian French", it should be understood as pertaining to Quebec French given that most people have never heard Acadian French being spoken, nor are they aware of the latter's existence.
		Those works using the term "Canadian French" or (French) "Canadianisms", on the other hand, are restricted to a few.

	French in Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Quebec French (/Canadian French) is spoken mainly in Quebec, but also by French-speaking communities in Ontario, Western Canada, Labrador and even in the New England region of the USA.
		Note that the term Canadian French (as used by persons outside Canada) usually refers to only to Quebec French (the most widely spoken dialect), and not the French language as it is spoken elsewhere in Canada, as the other Canadian dialects have little international visibility (excepting Acadian among American francophones).
		Although French is the native language of just over half a million Canadians in Ontario, francophone Ontarians represent only 4.4 percent of the province's population and are concentrated near the border with Quebec (Eastern Ontario) and in Sudbury.

	Nunavut - MSN Encarta
		This territorial government has many of the same political powers assigned to provinces under the Canadian constitution, but powers assigned to Nunavut are delegated to the territory by the national government in Ottawa, Ontario.
		The Canadian government amended the Nunavut Act in 1999, creating the Nunavut Court of Justice, a one-level court system that deals with both civil disputes and criminal cases.
		This heavy dependency on the federal government is also true for the other northern territories, the Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories.

	Prospects for Soviet-Canadian Co-operation in the Development of Northern Regions
		The natural and climatic conditions of the Canadian North and the structural distinctions of its resource potential are strikingly similar to those in the Soviet Union (and include as important a factor as the distances between the South and the northern territories under development).
		In addition, the principal direction of economic activity in the Canadian North is very similar to that of the Soviet North, although somewhat smaller in scope: large-scale development of mineral, oil, and gas resources; construction of railways, highways, and pipelines; exploration of the arctic shelf and sea-lanes; and town planning in permafrost conditions.
		Finally, the place of the Canadian North in the country's economic system and in the structure of Canada's modem economic links resembles to a much greater extent the place of the Soviet North in the Soviet economic system than that of Alaska in the United States, Greenland in Denmark, or the northern territories in Scandinavia.
