"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"2991367\" data-originallang=\"en\">Thank you, Mr. Chair.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2991368\" data-originallang=\"en\">I thank the witnesses for attending today.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2991369\" data-originallang=\"en\"> I have to tell you that I have a special affinity for Junior Achievement. I actually taught in Fort McMurray for five years. I found it a very rewarding experience\u2014and at different levels. I had one class that was made up of disadvantaged youths who for the most part were aboriginal, and I found it very rewarding to speak on their level and to educate them. To be honest, I found them to be much more practical in some aspects. I want to applaud you and your group. You do great work all across this country.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2991370\" data-originallang=\"en\">I'm interested in what our progress has been thus far as a government. I think you would agree with me that so far, in relation to our main goal, the financial literacy task force report and the consultation process have been good. Would you agree with me?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2991371\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Unfortunately, the mikes can't hear you nod.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"2991367\" data-originallang=\"en\">Merci, monsieur le pr\u00e9sident.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2991368\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je tiens \u00e0 remercier les t\u00e9moins de leur pr\u00e9sence aujourd'hui.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2991369\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je dois vous dire que j'ai une affinit\u00e9 sp\u00e9ciale avec Jeunes entreprises. J'ai enseign\u00e9 \u00e0 Fort McMurray durant cinq ans. Ce fut une exp\u00e9rience tr\u00e8s enrichissante, et \u00e0 divers points de vue. L'une de mes classes \u00e9tait compos\u00e9e de jeunes d\u00e9favoris\u00e9s dont la grande majorit\u00e9 \u00e9taient autochtones, et c'\u00e9tait tr\u00e8s valorisant de leur parler et de les former. Pour tout dire, j'ai trouv\u00e9 qu'ils \u00e9taient beaucoup plus pragmatiques \u00e0 certains \u00e9gards. Je tiens \u00e0 vous f\u00e9liciter, vous et votre groupe. Vous faites de l'excellent travail partout au pays.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2991370\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je m'int\u00e9resse aux progr\u00e8s que notre gouvernement a r\u00e9alis\u00e9s jusqu'ici. Je pense que vous serez d'accord avec moi pour dire que jusqu'\u00e0 maintenant, pour ce qui est de notre objectif principal, le rapport du groupe de travail sur la litt\u00e9ratie financi\u00e8re et le processus de consultation sont satisfaisants, n'est-ce pas? </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2991371\" data-originallang=\"en\">Malheureusement, les microphones ne vous entendent pas hocher la t\u00eate. </p>"
