"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1847306\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, while the government talks a great line about reducing taxes, the reality is that it is increasing taxes in ways that the hon. member has indicated. It is raising the security fees. There is more than one way to raise taxes. A lot of governments say that they are reducing taxes but meanwhile user fees are going up throughout the whole system of the government.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1847307\" data-originallang=\"en\">We say that the financial services industry needs more regulation, not less, and that guidelines should be put in place for bank profits and the salaries of the bank executives.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1847308\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Why can other jurisdictions in the world operate with reasonable CEO benefits and salaries, where in North America it is the law of the jungle? We have CEOs earning $10 million a year. How is that fair to working people in this country?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"1847306\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, le gouvernement tient de beaux discours sur les baisses d'imp\u00f4t et de taxes, mais en r\u00e9alit\u00e9, il les augmente, comme le d\u00e9put\u00e9 vient de l'expliquer. Il augmente les droits pour la s\u00e9curit\u00e9. Il y a plus d'une fa\u00e7on d'augmenter les taxes. Les gouvernements pr\u00e9tendent souvent r\u00e9duire les taxes, alors que tous les frais d'utilisation augmentent dans tout l'appareil gouvernemental.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1847307\" data-originallang=\"en\">\u00c0 notre avis, le secteur des services financiers doit \u00eatre plus r\u00e9glement\u00e9, pas moins, et il faut instaurer des lignes directrices sur les profits des banques et les salaires de leurs cadres sup\u00e9rieurs.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1847308\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pourquoi d'autres \u00c9tats dans le monde peuvent-ils fonctionner m\u00eame si les salaires et les avantages sociaux de leurs PDG sont raisonnables, pendant qu'en Am\u00e9rique du Nord, c'est la loi de la jungle? Ici, des PDG gagnent 10 millions de dollars par ann\u00e9e. O\u00f9 est l'\u00e9quit\u00e9 pour le reste des Canadiens?</p>"
