Yes, you need to specifiy the cultureInfo. In this case, you can use DateTime.ParseExact like so :
var myDate = "16 août 1980";
var dateConverted = DateTime.ParseExact(myDate, "D", CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr-CA"));
var dateUs = dateConverted.ToString("MMMM dd, yyyy", CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("en-US"));

To obtain "16 aug 1980" you must change "D" to "d MMM yyyy". With "D" the result is: Saturday, August 16, 1980 – Pedro Perez Dec 27 '16 at 16:34

With "MMM d yyyy" you obtain: Aug 16 1980 – Pedro Perez Dec 27 '16 at 16:41

That pretty much the format I have used in my answer. – Kinetic Dec 27 '16 at 16:43
