An entire province of people speaks French, with very large parts of other provinces that speak French as a highly visible portion of society.
The Punjabi population is limited to a few urban centers. http://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-re...&SC=1&S=99&O=A
By most spoken language:
Number of people in census: ~31.2M
Number of people identifying English: ~20.6M
Number of people identifying French: ~6.6M
Number of people identifying "non official language": ~3.4M
the balance is for mixed languages.
"non official language" would include any flavour of Chinese, Punjabi, Hindi, Farsi, Italian, German...

Go to CTV.ca and on the side you can stream everything. They have a feed of Sportsnet TSN and CTV all in Live HD. Quality's pretty awesome too.

cold or not, so are the other goalies going in, Kipper, Miller and somewhat Nabokov have been only so so as well. The best goalie going in would be the BACKUPS..Nittymaki, Halak, at times Backstrom
you tell me last nite Getzlaf was cold?
The russians have 9 KHLers who are in it for political reasons to show the world the KHL is better than the NHL, now with the exception of Radulov, imagine the outcome when we kno that those KHL players cannot adapt to the NHL rules.
The slovaks must be so happy with Halak playing so well. but even so, USA are the underdogs

Getzlaf had 4 points, yes it was vs. the Oilers but still he looked pretty good.
And I think Kipper is the hottest goalie going in.

Leave the lower mainland and then lay down that percentage again.
Besides, respect the heritage. If not for the French we wouldn't be the country we are today.
