We use AT&T Business Translations to have our online help and some print
material translated into Canadian French.  They were prompt and easy to work
with.  We had numerous technical problems because our weird online
help system didn't like the foreign characters required in French, and they
were very patient as we got our duckies in a row on this end.

They are:

Best of luck!
