Random question, out of pure curiosity, is anyone here French-Canadian but *not* from Quebec?

I hear there are Francophone communities in some parts of the Prairie provinces. Is that right?

in Nova Scotia it's mainly in Cap-Breton, and even there, the communities are very small, and they accent is so strong, they could hardly understand me speak French lol.

San Francisco, and San Jose have a lot of french speakers...

though less in the name of Quebecois, and more in the name of Vietnamese lol.
