Airports have translators.

This is a very common scenario. Would suggest they keep your number handy just in case immigration needs further infirmation especially if they aren’t regular travellers. As already indicated there are translators but you can also send them with answers to basic questions written in English like why they are visiting, where they will be staying, how much savings they have to support them in Canada, etc. They will confirm this information but this may make them feel more comfortable to have the information prepared in English.
