Maybe the lack of French acronym was intentional?

I wonder if the lack of a French acronym for the RCAF is not mere incompetence but is intentional. Quebec, where most Canadian French speakers live, is (despite a history of valiant members of the Forces) not very keen on things glorifying the military. Perhaps a lack of French acronym was part of a micro-targeting campaign -- one message for English Canada and another for French Canada?

If so, this is an encouragement of "Two Solitudes."
