In Ontario it's likely the languages they were offered included Dene, 
Cree, Mandarin, Punjabi, Arabic, Russian and something from the horn 
of Africa. You could postulate quite a few if a linguistically gifted 
child with multilingual parents had grown up in multiple countries, 
or if you got to include multiple romance languages but I too would 
have called bullshit on those respondents.
