Abstract

Ce texte examine à l’aide des outils de l’analyse économique l’offre et la demande pour le français et l’anglais au Québec puis de leur utilisation et valeur sur le marché du travail pour la période 1971-2011. Nous présentons également la politique linguistique en vigueur au Québec et discutons de comment la rendre optimale. Nos principaux résultats empiriques sont que : La connaissance du français a augmenté au Québec alors que la part de la population de langue maternelle française a diminué entre 1971 et 2016 (offre) ; L’importance des employeurs francophones a augmenté au Québec entre 1961 et 2003 (demande); Le statut socio-économique du français sur le marché du travail mesuré par son utilisation et sa rémunération s’est amélioré entre 1971 et 2011 alors que le bilinguisme est toujours plus rémunérateur que l’unilinguisme.
