This is cause the French Chart of Accounts is in french, and so all the account names are in French.

This is auto-set in the Setup Wizard when selecting the country.

Setup > Settings > Locale == en-CA

( not fr-CA )

Does FBooks only support 1/13 of Canadian provinces?

Maybe FBooks could use the localeplanet library to improve localization;

I assume this is because there is a French user who supplied the data template. I am installing with the default English CofA and will provide a corrected EN chart when completed if Alan can reload the Chart feed for Canada.

This is still an issue with the current release. You pick Canada as the locale and it automatically uses the French Canadian Chart of Accounts. I instead chose Standard Chart of Accounts afterwards.
