Both the British and the French colonized the country. Quebec is French speaking, along with many cities in eastern Canada. Our two official languages are French and English. We all learn French and English at school when we are young. The French spoken in Canada is actually a dialect of French called Quebecois. There are also other dialects of French in Canada such as acadian and (excuse the spelling) chiac. Along with other dialects as well.

The Constitution of Canada itself recognizes two official languages, English and French, and all constitutional acts since 1982 have themselves been enacted in these two official languages.

Because it's one of their TWO official languages (They speak English and French) All the printed materials and signs have to be in both languages. They grow up learning both languages (if not in their houses, in school)

Before the Revolutionary War, England, France, Spain and the Netherlands were battling over control over North America. England, Spain, and the Dutch temporarily claimed places in the soon to be U.S. while France got a hold of a lot of Canada.
