Le TIFF est subventionné, en plus, par Patrimoine Canadien ! Voici la réponse qu’on m’adressée lorsque j’ai posé la question l’an dernier aux responsables du TIFF : ''Hi Victor, Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, we do not have a French version of tiff.net. However, if you wanted to click here, Google does offer a translating service that may be of use. Alternately, kindly provide us with a phone number so we may have a ticket agent assist you in French before 7pm today. Best regards, Customer Relations''.
