I am looking into internationalizing a Flex application I am working on and I am curious if there are any best practices or recommendations for doing so.

Googling for such information results in a handful of small articles and blog posts, each about doing it differently, and the advantages and disadvantages are not exactly clear.

Edited to narrow scope:

Need to support only two languages (en_CA and fr_CA)
Need to be able to switch at runtime
