I'm aware of the existence of the Chiac dialect, but I don't know much about it. Could someone please explain how prevalent it is, and how it differs from other French dialects?

1I heard people talk Chiac in New-Brunswick but I won't even try to explain anything about it as I had hard times understanding what people where saying, while I'm fluent french and québecois ;)– LudoMCCommented Sep 1, 2011 at 17:01

@Joubarc I'm living in Monaco, so 6 000 kms from Chiac speaking people! I just go in QC/NB at least once a year for 20 yrs :)– LudoMCCommented Sep 2, 2011 at 16:27

Wikipedia. It seems to be a recent creole of French and English in use in a specific region of Canada, and totally unknown where I am.
