I have lived in Canada for quite a long time, so this is my view: Most french Canadians get along with English quite well, although with an accent for most of them. Most englishspeaking Canadians don't do so well and lose most of the French they learned in school. If not in contact with frenchspeaking people, they don't see the need to use that language. I used to live in BC, so this might vary with the region that you live in, obviously.
