Young people tend to be more bilingual than their elders, but it's not really a sea-change. There are still quite a few young francophones who don't really speak English.

North and east actually. You have a lot around Moncton and Shediac. Basically the French population somewhat forms a opposite of an L shape on a map, going across the northern and eastern edge of the province. There's some exceptions like the French population around Fredericton, and the more or less unilingual anglophone town of Miramichi, but for the most part, the north and east of the province are French or bilingual, while the rest is mostly unilingually English.
