 <item>
   <catid>C-2353J</catid>
    <desc xml:lang="en">Tyre Centre</desc>
    <desc xml:lang="en-US">Tire Center</desc>
    <desc xml:lang="en-CA">Tire Centre</desc>  
  </item>

;-) Actually this would be even better

 <switch>
    <text systemLanguage="en-US">Tire Center</text>
    <text systemLanguage="en-CA">Tire Centre</text>  
    <text systemLanguage="en">Tyre Centre</text>
  </switch>

Which displays a single string.
