Now here's someone who takes that deux langages stuff seriously.
Laurent at Polyscopique is now running (an impeccable) English translation side-by-side with his original French posts, and it's well worth a look.

I wasn't going to comment on it, because I almost reflexively blow off anything that gets politicians strutting about with their puffed-up indignation.
Besides, I thought it was just plain dumb. Stupid schoolyard taunts masquerading as humor.
For a more polished example of the latter, the South Park gang came north of the border last night and proceeded to lampoon every Canadian sacred cow in sight, and it was hilarious, especially when they pulled the new P.M. out of his spidey-hole to reveal . . . Saddam Hussein.
Now that was funny. (It might explain a few other things, too.)
