I did last friday. You will first meet or with the admissions coordinator and she will tell you what to expect, ask some questions about your academic file. Then 2 professors will interview and go through your portfolio, and yes you will need to speak in English. The questions are general and the overall experience is very relaxed. Then you will have a tour around the facilities.
 
Nice! What kind of question they made you? Questions like why you want to be a pharmacist? Or about your academic performance?

The admissions coordinator is the one to ask about you academic profile in detail, although its not part of the "official" interview.
The professors mainly ask general questions about why you want to be a pharmacist, what do you think pharmacy is, what do you believe the role of a pharmacist should become. They also asked about my experiences, research and even some politics. Then they will let you ask questions about the program or pharmacy in general. Show them and refer to your portfolio as best as you can and they will keep it. Be up to date with the current issues in pharmacy (provider status, ways a pharmacist can contribute to healthcare beside the obvious).
