In Quebec most road sign are in internationally recognized formats (graphics and pictures)and the others are generally bilingual when needed. To be noted that up here (Canada, including Quebec) we use kilometers intead of miles since the end of the 70's as per my recollection.

Having been in Japan and Greece, I didn't see anything but japanneese and Greek. However it is to be noted that there are less American presence in these countries than their are in Iraq (recently) and Saudi Arabia). On the other hand, in Frace I heard more anglicism than I hear in Quebec.

Out of Montreal I would say (not scientific estimate) that over 95% of people speack french and 80% are bilingual (at least enough to maintain a basic discussion. In Montreal, less than 10% of people are unilingual english (or at least claim to be) and others are generally bilingual.

As for Miami and Texas, I assume that if this effectively becomes a risk you wil (as I beleive they did in California) legislate to protect english.

I take your remark and the precedent as the expression of a point of view that I respect, not a critic.
