Summary:Numbed by an official language policy which means they can "grow" across Canada, francophone minorities in the country have somewhat neglected geography. Their territory, carrying memory and processed by the aspirations for the future, influence the transmission of language and culture. Editor geographer Anne Gilbert and eight authors focused on two areas of research: the practices and representations of Francophone communities and the projects of their institutions. The issue of community vitality of the Francophone minority is how to live daily the relationship between individual and collective actors and the tension that emerges. The studies presented in this book as identify traces in the spatial organization of the minority, the linguistic landscape and the networks that it weaves the various spatial scales. The environmental report and majority / minority therein profile also attracted attention from the village to the big city. Such analysis can advance a strong thesis: Francophone communities no longer have the conditions now needed to complete the space that history has bequeathed. The geography is difficult for them.
