[The future of linguistic groups in Quebec:  balances and options].
"During the 1981-1986 period, the balance between demographic phenomena was such that the proportion of francophones in the population tended to increase in Quebec.  In this article, we project the 1981-1986 situation and other scenarios to see the impact of increasing immigration on the proportion of francophones in Quebec.  The results suggest that there is an antinomy between an increase of the total population and an increase of the proportion of francophones.  Thus, the policy of the provincial government to accept 55,000 immigrants per year would probably lead to a decrease in the proportion of francophones in Quebec." (SUMMARY IN ENG AND SPA)
