Canon in Finland

Description

Did I already mention we're getting a new Les Mis in Finland next year?
Did I already mention that the Finnish translation is hideous? It does everything all wrong: Grantaire is afraid of death, Valjean tells God what to do, Fantine talks about losing her virginity, Cosette straight tells Marius to shut up, Javert's Suicide is a love letter to JVJ and JVJ tells Enjolras he will "do the spy"... It's inaccurate, hard to understand, unintentionally funny and it ships Stars/Bread like there's no tomorrow.

In short, sounds like it's the time for a new translation, right? Show your support, sign the petition for a new Finnish translation at here, English instructions included (let me know if you can't find your country in the list).
With your help, we might get a new translation. Finnish 2013 Les Mis: now with 100% less spy-doing?

Les Mis is not mine.

~saveartax, say nothing. I know that it's useless pretending some dark corner of my soul doesn't ship this anymore.
