We really believe that all Canadians should have strong financial literacy so that they can be successful in their lives, not just taking care of their own financial future but also those of their families, and sharing that financial knowledge with their friends and becoming literate to function effectively in today's society. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2674210\" data-originallang=\"en\">Therefore, we proposed legislation to increase financial literacy. We are working with educational practitioners as well as financial institutions to make sure that this kind of program is expanded throughout the country.</p>",

Nous sommes convaincus que tous les Canadiens devraient avoir de solides connaissances financi\u00e8res non seulement pour r\u00e9ussir dans la vie, mais aussi pour assurer leur propre avenir financier et celui de leur famille, et \u00e9galement pour les partager avec leurs amis et fonctionner efficacement dans la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 d'aujourd'hui.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2674210\" data-originallang=\"en\">Voil\u00e0 pourquoi nous avons propos\u00e9 une mesure l\u00e9gislative visant \u00e0 am\u00e9liorer la litt\u00e9ratie financi\u00e8re. Nous travaillons avec des p\u00e9dagogues et avec des institutions financi\u00e8res pour nous assurer que ce genre de programme sera offert dans tout le pays.</p>"
