I think that would be the case in most places with more than one official
or "default" language. I guess in Brussels "bilingual" would mostly refer
to Dutch/French, for example. I'd expect that it refers to English/French
in at least some parts of Canada.

Louisiana too, I would expect.


Hmm I've seen a Cajun trying to speak 'French' to a
Parisian. They ened up settling for talking in English.
