"Anglo-Canadian" refers to Canadians of British descent or those who identify with British culture. This term often encompasses individuals whose ancestors immigrated from England, Scotland, Wales, or Ireland. Anglo-Canadians have played a significant role in shaping Canada's history, culture, and institutions. The term is also used to describe the English-speaking population in Canada, particularly in contrast to the French-speaking Québécois. While English is one of Canada's two official languages, Anglo-Canadians contribute to the country's diverse cultural landscape, which includes various ethnicities and languages.
