I don't mind, it's a blast to hear. When a European bilingual friend lets slip "télécharger un fichier" I ask if it's from a server in Quebec. Every time.
This matter was a problem for me when I had a job interview in French with a game developer in France: I was in doubt about the language to use for technical terms.
I chose to say them in French to err on the safe side, but sometimes I had trouble understanding when they used an English term in the middle of a French sentence: I was so 'tuned' on French that I tried to decode that sound as if it had been a French word... and failed miserably :-)
