What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Go to web page

That Chrome doesn't translate the webpage to some random language I don't understand!

Also, I tell Chrome to stop it (see attachment) and I reload the page and it does it again!

ARGHHHHHHHHHHH!  SO FRUSTRATING!

Chrome is not translating here. 

Instead, the web page itself has inserted that translate bar, and auto-translated for you. Why Spanish? Because the link you are using asks for that (the "/es/" part). If you replace that with "en" for English, all works fine. 

Here's that changed link: http://documentation.caseware.com/2015/WorkingPapers/en/Content/Accounting_and_Assurance/Tax/Canada/GIFI/r_Export_of_Data_to_GIFI_Dialog.htm

You can also click the little 'x' on the right of the translate bar, that seems to solve it too.
