According to the given information, the report found that 20 percent of Canada's population spoke a foreign language in 2012, but it did not specify which language. However, since the question is asking for the most common foreign language spoken, we can look to other data sources. According to Statistics Canada, Mandarin and Cantonese were the most commonly reported non-official languages spoken at home in 2016, followed by Punjabi. Therefore, the best choice is B) Chinese, which includes both Mandarin and Cantonese speakers.
