It's interesting but not really a shocker if you know very basic Canadian history, though maybe that's becoming rare these days. Canada is essentially what once was the French part of North America. Even Newfoundland was French at one point. Nova Scotia was majority French speaking until the 1750s. The genetic footprint of these French settlers is larger than just Francophones today. There are likely significant French genetics in places like Alberta due to waves of migration from the east. Linguistic assimilation covers that up.
