Some people still speak it in Cape Breton but not, I believe, as a first language. There is a Gaelic school and a movement afoot to protect the language.

Unfortunately it's not spoken too widely anymore, and I don't think really at all as a first language. I believe it's very close but not exactly the same as is spoken in Scotland (probably like Scottish and American/Canadian English).

Yes, though not as much as it used to be. And it is taught in some schools. But if you want to hear Gaelic here, you only have to listen to the music. Gaelic music is BIG!

except present day immigrants, i imagine that the share of British those who do no longer communicate English is very almost non-existent. some human beings recognize an older celtic language, yet do no longer communicate it conclusively. without tremendous scale authorities help various the older languages all over the area are straight away vanishing. There are fifty 2 community languages spoken in Mexico, yet 3/4 of them will vanish quickly.
