Just hire a damn translator, I don’t care. I’d only care if they refused to offer any attempt at translation.

Sure French is one of our national languages but I’d wager there is a large portion, if not the majority of citizens that don’t speak it more than whatever they can remember from school. (Edit: the Mauril app I’m using to slowly learn says it’s only 18% of the country that are bilingual.)

I don’t speak it, I’m attempting to learn, but honestly if the policies are good and they have a translator I don’t give a shit if they speak both languages or not.
