2011 French Leaders Debate: On coalitions

[SAFEwisdom]

As an observer from Australia, I'm wondering what happens if a political leader is not bilingual (e.g. doesn't speak French). If such a leader participates in the French language debate, is there an interpreter on hand?

@SAFEwisdom that would not happen, because the prime minister of canada is required to know both official languages i believe

@SAFEwisdom Although I suppose it is theoretically possible, it is almost 100% certain not to happen in real life.

@SAFEwisdom no what happens is the political leader must type what he wants to say into Google Translate and then print it and then have a female woman read it and he must use hand gestures to explain what he is trying to say.
