There is a French version: http://www.wordle.net/show/wrdl/3941939/Une_lettre_de_Jack_Layton_%C3%A0_l%27attention_des_canadiens

There seems to be a difference in word emphasis. I don't know if it is because the French language modifies adjectives whereas the English language doesn't. Each French adjective can count as one word whereas each English adjective can be counted and equivalent of four times.
