Message | The head of government and head of state can keep their french names but I believe the legislator should have an english title |

Message | Why the legislature specifically? I mean, I'm not terribly passionate about having everything in the country be any one language, but why are we changing the name of the legislative body in a (presumably) mostly french-speaking nation when we could just adopt a resolution declaring Rildanor a multilingual state? |

Message | well I will support any resolution declaring this a multilingual state but my thinking was we give this an english name and leave the executive branch and the monarchy french to create a balance |

Message | I don't see the point either. The national anthem, sport, animal, etc, are all in English. |
