    Default More common: Non-Hispanic Americans who speak Spanish or non-Quebecois Canadians who speak French?

    Perhaps this is more apt and sensible than the other thread.

    Non-Hispanic Americans speaking Spanish. In Canada, almost no one who is not Quebecois speaks French. French identity has been suppressed outside of Quebec.

    What would you estimate is the percentage for either of the two scenarios?

    Non-Hispanic Americans speaking Spanish may be slightly more common. It is true that hardly any Canadian that doesn't live in Quebec or isn't of French-Canadian descent speaks French.
