Which studios produce bilinqual covers

Does Anyone know which studios use bilingual covers and which use just English covers when purchasing from a Canadian E-tailer?

I thought it was a law that they had to make bilingual covers in Canada because of the French speaking parts. Maybe I am wrong though.

Universal, Paramount, New Line and Disney (Buena Vista and Miramax) do Bilingual covers.

MGM, Warner, Fox and Columbia TriStar haven't released any (to my knowledge) bilingual covers. Criterions are no different up here as well (for the exception of Traffic: CC).

Miramx dvds yes, Disney (buena vista) however places a small circle on the cover that has a bit of french, that is all.

Universal, Alliance Atlantis and Paramount only provide bilingual covers.

Everyone else (the major studios anyway) provides separate English and bilingual covers. We're given a choice.

Remember the golden rule, no French track = no bilingual.
