Which city is known as Canada's second largest mainly French-speaking city in the world after Paris?

  1. Montreal

  2. Quebec City

  3. Ottawa

  4. Toronto

The correct answer is: Montreal

Montreal is the correct answer because it is the largest primarily French-speaking city in Canada and the second largest in the world after Paris. Quebec City (B) is also primarily French-speaking, but it is smaller than Montreal. Ottawa (C) is the capital of Canada and is predominantly English-speaking. Toronto (D) is the largest city in Canada, but it is mainly English-speaking. Therefore, Montreal is the only option that fits the criteria of being Canada's second largest mainly French-speaking city in the world after Paris.
