This map is an example of a proportional circle map showing population by mother tongue for provinces and territories in Canada. The source is Statistics Canada dated 2006 and the green circles represent a specific number. The size of the circle is relative to the size of the population where a smaller circle symbolizes lower population and a larger one, greater population. This website has a learning resource called E-STAT which is an interactive tool about society and the economy in Canada. Access is free but only available to educational institutions. The map I found is just an example of the mapping tools they offer for analyzing trends across geographic regions.
