This is a really interesting debate.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3481602\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The bill we are studying today will affect imports from the United States. Mr. Stewart mentioned that he went shopping in the U.S. and bought a can of Coke, which was produced there of course. Even if a retailer had the right to import some into Canada, the cans produced in the United States would not necessarily have the French information required by Canadian law. Does this bill go far enough to protect the rights of francophones in Canada? Mr. Stewart gave a good example.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3481603\" data-originallang=\"fr\">According to what I have seen of this bill, I think that it will be prejudicial to francophones. Could someone comment that aspect?</p>",

C'est un d\u00e9bat vraiment int\u00e9ressant.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3481602\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Le projet de loi que nous \u00e9tudions aujourd'hui touche les importations de produits en provenance des \u00c9tats-Unis. M. Stewart a mentionn\u00e9 qu'il \u00e9tait all\u00e9 y magasiner et qu'il avait achet\u00e9 une canette de Coke, \u00e9videmment produite aux \u00c9tats-Unis. M\u00eame si un commer\u00e7ant avait le droit d'en importer au Canada, les canettes provenant des \u00c9tats-Unis ne comporteraient pas n\u00e9cessairement les indications en fran\u00e7ais comme l'exige la loi canadienne. Ce projet de loi va-t-il assez loin pour prot\u00e9ger les droits des francophones au Canada? M. Stewart a donn\u00e9 un bon exemple.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3481603\" data-originallang=\"fr\">D'apr\u00e8s ce que j'ai pu voir du projet de loi, je crois que les francophones seront l\u00e9s\u00e9s. Quelqu'un pourrait-il faire des commentaires l\u00e0-dessus? </p>"
