A french headline that wouldn’t look like a Babelfish translation would be more like:
“Si vous ne croyez pas en les changements climatiques…”
Mon Dieu !!
Oh well, snowball fights may be a welcome diversion from Carbiques 🙁
I just came in from shovelling some more global warming. It is brutual out there!
The sooner that fat Al Gore flies close to the sun and starts a grease fire the better.
That isn’t babelfish. It’s Saskatchewan french – instantly understood by anyone who learned to speak French in high school on the Canadian prairies.
Apparently AGW (Al Gore Warming) failed miserably yesterday in Halifax.
According to Environment Canada it was -93.5 C for a max temp. -10.6 C for a low………
…Stonehamian, I have no problem with the headline seeing my wife’s from Montreal, they speak Franglish there.
Climate change…
Didn’t you guys know that until 1980, when observation satellites were first launched, the climate hadn’t changed since King Arthur proclaimed that “The Crown has made it clear! The climate shall be perfect all the year!”
You would think you guys had never seen Camelot. Clearly we have displeased one or more of the Gods or King Arthur’s laws would still be in force.
Must really sting Gore to see it so cold in “Prince Albert”.
CBC/CTV/G&M headlines: (cheek bulge)
* Global Cooling Much Worse Than Expected *
(AP) Even though Marseille France is on a latitude similar to Northern California and even though it’s weather is warmed by the Gulf Stream and even though it is situated on the Mediterranean Sea – Marseille has been paralyzed by snow !
Leading Skyfaller, Professor Flakeinstein, suggests this is proof positive that Mankind has brought grave environmental harm to Mother Earth. More taxes and gov’t control are needed to prevent a hellish freezing over, he says.
“It’s Saskatchewan French”
Eggzactamont!
Forget the weather. Enjoy the post for it’s patwa of Saskatchewan French. Joe Clarkian French was merely a poor imitation. John Diefenbaker led the way in making Canada’s second language comproneh vooable for many of us.

Oh No!! Does this mean the young in France are going to have to burn cars to stay warm?
Frogsicles and frozen frog legs!
Stonehamian;; “if you don’t believe in climate change”. This is not “climate change” but rather changing wheather, to get averages you have got to have “highs” and “lows”. Apparently it has snowed before in Marseille, and you must have heard of Hans Brinker and his Silver Skates, an old story from the Netherlands. Expect more “lows” to “average out” the faux global warming propaganda.
(I lived in Saskatchewan for a short time many years ago. They pronounced the name of the town, “Bien Fait” as “Been Fate”. Really! Or was someone pulling my leg?)
I always thought it was Bean Fate.
Don’t forget “climate change” is as oxymoronic as saying “water wet”. The definition of climate is that it is a constantly changing, chaotic energy distribution sytem.
It is just a propaganda title invented by the International Environmental Industry when the realized a few years back the “Global Warming” wasn’t happening so they needed to shift and expand the hysteria to a broader term that could cover anything.
They are desperate to keep the fund raising scam going and “climate change” is new speak for “send us money and feel good”.
Poor babies! They must have all of two inches there, eh? Hans Brinker would be laughing his @ss off at these poofs.
So you guys. Is it harder to start a car on fire in the snow, or what?
Fred say Climate Change! Water wet! … Hulk smash!
It’s pronounced “Bean Fate”.
We’re English speakers who speak French but pronounce English.
The French do the same, but opposite, without blushing.
The only exception I make is with the names of French politicians because I like it to sound as though I’m hawking a loogie when I pronounce their names.
Been Fate: Bien Fait (Well made)
Puss Koopie: Pouce Coupe (Cut Thumb) BC
Say dem right, Hosti.
I was listening to CBC Overnight and heard a report that Russia has cut off the supply of natural gas to the Ukraine and possibly Europe. I wonder how the European leaders will resolve this problem?
I was listening to 650 CKOM this morning and they blamed the jump in the pumps in Saskatoon on Russia’s “gas cutoff”.
I kid you not!
in saskabush they can screw up french better than the kaybeckers, who’d thunked
and wait till we get snow like we did 50 years ago, the enviroweenies will be stunded:-))))
Wow, I ain’t seen snow since 2001, well, wait, we did see snow for about 45 minutes last year in March, I was watching a movie, Where Eagles Dare, about 3’Oclock in the morning when one of my outside dogs started howling to the Moon when I went outside to see what the fuss was all about there were actual real snowflakes falling when I tried to wake the Family so they could see they called me names and went back to sleep.
Not to mention; when they wokeup it was all gone, and that’s when the name-calling started up again.
ps. I have since bought a digital camera.
I always thought it was Bean Fate.”
I remember that, I said French style a few times due to my pathetic Ontario high school french experience, but i learned it was bean fate Meanwhile there’s “Forget” but they say that in the francais style. And don’t get me started about Montmartre…

how about “teet john”
tete jaune , the highway has been anglized to fit.
I heard the same report Kate, that was the late report. The first report I heard on NTR this morning is that “The oil companies didn’t make enough money last year so they are compensating”(not word for word).
I think a comprehensive list of excuses for raising the price of gas is in order. The best excuse of the year can win an award;-p
re. “I was listening”
I heard a CTV talking liberal-head the other day say “Michael Ignatieff, who has impeccable credentials”
They can’t just say his name.
It’s impossible for them to mention him without the obligatory post or pre-tonguebath.
lookout, that’s exactly what they were calling the place when I did some railroading in and around Bean Fate in May, 1967. Digging up the CPR line and putting it back. I didn’t faire so bien, bein’ that my fate was a near fatally wounded back.
That isn’t babelfish. It’s Saskatchewan french
Kate,
Your French has got to be the cutest I have ever seen ( not kidding!… and my mother tongue is French.)
Hah, Moscow, Russia and Kiev, Ukraine are -11 C today.
Only a balmy -9 C in Marseille? Beach weather for polar bears!
Hey didn’t the french man Napoleon try to visit Moscow in subzero temperatures? As my history lessons suggested that foray didn’t work out so well.
You can always count on the Russians to use “General Winter” to their advantage. Mr. Putin has been taking notes.
But if you are exiled to St. Helena school in Alberta; it is also -11 C!
The real St. Helena Island is a tropical 19 C, though Napoleon found much to complain about it’s climate.
As regards the real St. Helena:
“It is presumed that her remains were transferred in 849 to the Abbey of Hautvillers, in the French Archdiocese of Reims, as recorded by the monk Altmann in his “Translatio”. She was revered as a saint, and the veneration spread, early in the ninth century, even to Western countries. Her feast falls on 18 August.”
And in Reims today it is only a saintly -3 C.
Nothing like a little “holy fire” to warm the soul.
So what’s up with turning off the gas to the Ukraine Vlad? Ah yes, they were praying that you left them coal in their shoes!
That however is the job of the 1st St. Nicolaas Army! “General Winter” can be beaten with the correct planning. Ask any Saskabush or Winterpeg dweller.
Sometimes a little generosity can go a long way, in keeping the fires burning.

Well, Good ‘ole Uncle Vlad “the Impaler” Putin will ensure it doesn’t get any warmer in Europe over the cold winter months.
I suppose if he cared a damn about PR he could claim that he really wasn’t trying to bully the Ukraine (and the Eurowennies in the rest of the has-been continent) at all but merely helping the Eurotrash to meet their Kyoto targets.
If the Eurotrash aren’t freezing in the dark, how are they going to stop it from over-heating?
And Marquis Drive is, well, Markwiss Drive.
…where’s Bean Farte?
I showed my wife the Saskatoon Star Phoenix internet article boasting about the record 24 straight days of minus 25C weather last night.
She said I should show them my Official Cerificate that I survived the Great Edmonton Freeze-up of 1968-69. I had totally forgotten about my authentic Edmonton memorabilia.
We suffered thru about 30 straight days of below zero F (or minus 20C), from Dec to Jan.
It changed my life.
I moved to Calgary in Feb. heh.
Start printing the Official Certificates Toon Town.
Rockyt – I have that same certificate – came across it when we were cleaning out my mom’s house (in lovely BC – my parents got smart when they retired)
felis c, thanks for the memory and I’m pleased my old brain is still functioning! (Of course, that’s my long term memory. . . I hope your back has recovered;-)
ahhhh. aint that sweet. how about those poor bastards who just had their gas cut off. can’t have too much global warming now eh.
Wow, someone else who speaks “French” like I do.
lookout, the back never did fully recover from the Bean Fate (and environs) experience but, fortunately, I have never had to abuse it as much as I did then. Tamping ballast 12 hours a day, six days a week and back then there was real global warming… well, at least Bean Fate and environs warming. Many days the temp was close to 100F. So, after the ballast tamping came the tamping down of beer several nights a week. I think I’ve recovered from that, though.
Qu’est-ce que vous avez fait a Bienfait?
Well, felis c, I was just passing by . . . and, after some university French, highly amused by the mispronunciation–so amused, that I remember it nearly 40 years later.
my favourite Frenchie legacy is the Grande Tetons.
( the big ti ts)
in your face Anglo MFs .
I made the mistake of saying Mount Rainyea in the US but they pronounsed it Rainyer (Mt. Rainier). The best part was when they looked at me as though I were teached in the head so I kept doing it. Americans are nice.
If you live in the south Okanagan, you may get the sense of Sisyphus’ punishment, though it is doubtful that anybody in the neighborhood fed their son to the olympians.
Every morning for a week, it’s shovel exercises with more and more of the white stuff.
Though, it is a good way to start your morning.
Yes, the snow here is a little exciting for the natives (err… the frenchies, not injuns).
About 2 inches on the ground and confusion reigns. I did get some really excited looks when I passed people on the road who were doing 20 km/h and fingers gripped hardily to the wheel, while I had my thermos mug of coffee in one hand and was doing about 90. I could almost hear the frenchies scream oooh lala, or maybe I did actually hear that!!
I need to find a little bumper sticker that says “Relax, It’s OK cause I’m Canadian” If the gendarmerie ever manage to pull me over I think I will try that line.
A french headline that wouldn’t look like a Babelfish translation would be more like:
“Si vous ne croyez pas en les changements climatiques…”
