Summary

Description	English: French ancestry in the USA (1990 census) and Canada (2016 census). This map only depicts percentages with the response "French", as US Census responses show "responses with one or more ancestry". Statistics Canada percentages shown here depict the "French" ancestry response for its own census as well, as even the response "Quebecois" has only hundreds of responses in the 8 million population (2016) of Quebec. Legend: >10% 7-10% 5-7% 4-5% 3-4% 2-3% <2% Français : Franco-Américains aux États-Unis (le recensement de 1990) et les Canadiennes françaises (le recensement de 2016).

	15:56, 7 December 2019	1,749 × 1,740 (81 KB)	Domen von Wielkopolska	Great work, but I'm updating because you forgot to include French Canadian and Cajun/Acadian categories from 1990 U.S. census, so percentages are changing in some states after adding up numbers for French and these two categories. Now the border of Louisiana Purchase is better visible, so it makes sense: https://www2.census.gov/library/publications/decennial/1990/cp-s-1-2.pdf
