Benoit is entirely correct, however a word to the wise for Canadian
political correctness. There are some in Canada, who take great offence when
somebody leaves off the official language of their choice from any
literature. Since most of us cannot say for certain what official Canadian
language our customers will speak, it is generally easier to place both
languages on the label and be done with it.
