Many Canadian companies have opted that way, including all those that
moved their head offices from Quebec when the language laws came into
effect.

Probably cost Lee Valley a small fortune to translate all those tool pr0n
catalog's into French. Never mind the website, and all the other stuff
that would be necessary to keep the language police off their case.

Wait till the weekend is over.
Hamilton says 30 - 50 cms.
That's about 12 - 20 inches in real terms of measurement.

Don't have to worry about them here in Quebec. The language police will
go after them.
Mind you we can't have Lee Valley or Busy Bee here either unless they
translate absolutely every bit of text they have. A true downside.

I can't speak for the businesses, but it would not make financial sense
for them to produce all documentation in a second language for a
customer base that would not be much larger than what it presently is.
Both companies do mail order and web orders so they do not have to open
a branch store (although it would be nice). The largest population area
is only two hours from the main Lee Valley store/factory and many of us
will find another excuse to go to Ottawa with the family and while we
are there we may as well stop in at Lee Valley.
