Reading from the report you brought forward, it doesn't seem to me that we anticipate a lot of changes in interest rates and so forth or in inflation over the next few years.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"622085\" data-originallang=\"en\">In the U.S., the story is a little bit different. Their growth isn't quite so good. Is there a potential that the Fed in the U.S. could actually reduce interest rates, which would have the probable effect of increasing the value of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar? Could we see a further rise in the Canadian dollar?</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"622083\" data-originallang=\"en\">Merci.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"622084\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Vous avez mentionn\u00e9 des fluctuations et des chocs, mais cela \u00e9tant dit, il semble que la Banque pr\u00e9voit une p\u00e9riode relativement longue de stabilit\u00e9 au cours des trois prochaines ann\u00e9es. Selon le rapport que vous avez pr\u00e9sent\u00e9, nous ne semblons pas pr\u00e9voir de grands changements des taux d\u2019int\u00e9r\u00eat ou de l\u2019inflation au cours des prochaines ann\u00e9es.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"622085\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Aux \u00c9tats-Unis, l\u2019histoire est quelque peu diff\u00e9rente. La croissance n\u2019est pas aussi bonne. Est-il possible que le gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral am\u00e9ricain r\u00e9duise les taux d\u2019int\u00e9r\u00eat, ce qui pourrait probablement accro\u00eetre la valeur du dollar canadien par rapport au dollar am\u00e9ricain? Pourrait-on voir une nouvelle hausse du dollar canadien?</p>"
