This blog post was originally written in French and then translated into English. The texts convey the thoughts and experiences of a Francophone living in Toronto.
And remember that translations can serve different purposes. While an Anglophone might ask a Francophone to translate a document into French if it were intended for a French-speaking audience, a Francophone might ask another Francophone to translate a document from English to French for comprehension purposes.
We hope this helps to clarify things.
