"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"2673761\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I hate to trespass into partisan debates between the Conservatives and the Liberals, but on the banking sector, in fairness, we are very fortunate that Paul Martin turned down the banks when they wanted to go global. It is just a historical reality.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2673762\" data-originallang=\"en\">This legislation is encouraging. It is good to see a government that is willing, although it tends to be very anti-regulation, to say that more regulations are needed, particularly over the Canadian banking sector going into more foreign territories.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2673763\" data-originallang=\"en\">Could the hon. parliamentary secretary expand on whether there could be more robust consumer protections still added to the legislation when it goes to committee?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"2673761\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, j'ai horreur de m'immiscer dans les d\u00e9bats partisans qui opposent conservateurs et lib\u00e9raux, mais je dois pr\u00e9ciser en toute justice qu'en ce qui concerne le secteur bancaire, nous sommes tr\u00e8s chanceux que Paul Martin ait emp\u00each\u00e9 les banques de mondialiser leurs activit\u00e9s lorsqu'elles souhaitaient le faire. C'est une r\u00e9alit\u00e9 historique.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2673762\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le projet de loi va dans le bon sens. Il est encourageant de voir que le gouvernement est pr\u00eat, alors qu'il est habituellement peu favorable \u00e0 l'interventionnisme, \u00e0 reconna\u00eetre qu'il est n\u00e9cessaire de resserrer les r\u00e8gles, particuli\u00e8rement en ce qui concerne l'expansion du secteur bancaire canadien sur les march\u00e9s \u00e9trangers. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2673763\" data-originallang=\"en\">La secr\u00e9taire parlementaire pourrait-elle pr\u00e9ciser si des mesures de protection des consommateurs plus rigoureuses pourraient \u00eatre ajout\u00e9es au projet de loi \u00e0 l'\u00e9tape de l'\u00e9tude en comit\u00e9?</p>"
