MONTREAL — A new survey conducted for Quebec’s language watchdog says young Quebecers are far less bothered than older residents about being served in English in stores.

In a report published this week, the watchdog says 41 per cent of customers between the ages of 18 and 34 reported feeling indifferent to being served in English.

That’s compared to 29 per cent for Quebecers aged 35 to 54, and 30 per cent for Quebecers aged 55 and older.
