Francais en Quebec, what about the rest of Canada?

If you go south of the border...I mean, civilisation's border, you will
get away not speaking the native language(spanish) only if you
drive a heavy jet, and even there, get ready to wet your bvd's...

ATC down there is a cushy job for those who won the election
or the latest coup and helping out us flyboys, especially if you're a
"gringo"(it mean estupido) is very low on their list of priorities.
Very few speak english and those who do are not in these
twenty dollars a month jobs.

Going out of North America, you better know some French and Spanish,
or you may well end up in one of those dank cells, keeping company
to the roaches. So, stop being stupid and learn some
foreign language, it may get you out of real deep doo-doo one day!

Been there, done that, and you wont enjoy be the supplyer of food
and real water to the whole jail unless you can explain
to all your predicament as your company pull the strings
to free you. Hostage taking is coming back in fashion,
and language assets are basics for survival.

Weird, I wonder what good those languages will do you in hundreds of other countries.

Hell there is one real big country with almost as many people in one city as all of Canada has just south of us that neither of those languages are spoken......

Naw, john_brown I think you are going a little overboard on this stuff.
