It assumes people here use each platform at the national rate and counts all adults, not only those online, so treat these as upper estimates. Meta’s own audience size for your exact targeting will differ.

  • 83% have French as their mother tongue. Run French ads and landing pages, and check Quebec's French-language rules for advertising.
  • A younger population (median age 38.8 vs 43.2 for Quebec). Instagram and TikTok are worth more budget here.
  • More families with children than Quebec (51% of families vs 39%). Family-focused messages and timing around school schedules can help.
  • Median household income is 68% higher than Quebec. Premium offers and financing for bigger jobs can land well.
