title: [Demographic behavior of linguistic groups in Montreal].
abstract: The author examines trends in fertility, internal migration, and mortality among the principal linguistic groups in Montreal, Canada. "Certain non-negligible disparities exist in demographic behaviour of linguistic groups on the Montreal and Jesus Islands.  On the other hand, in the rest of the metropolitan Montreal area, linguistic disparities in demographic behaviour are noticeably smaller: the three groups have the same fertility level and the same propensity to migrate; only differentials in mortality can be observed. The natural growth rate of francophones on the Island of Montreal was (in 1985-1987) slightly inferior to that of the other two groups, but in the metropolitan region it was superior.  On the whole however, taking into account internal migration, the group of francophones of the Islands of Montreal and Jesus had the highest growth rate and the anglophone group the lowest rate (in fact negative)."
