In reality, what we are seeing is the return of omnibus bills. What is more, the Liberals do not even have the guts to deal with the real problem, the exorbitant interest rates on credit cards. It gets even better. They are giving our infrastructure and great returns to their friends the banks while continuing to run up the deficit. Who will get that interest? The banks.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4690266\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Why are the Liberals favouring banks to the detriment of consumers in Quebec and Canada?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4690262\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je remercie mon coll\u00e8gue de son allocution.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4690263\" data-originallang=\"fr\">J'aimerais lui rappeler que, pour le Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois moyen, il n'y a pas de cong\u00e9 de sympathie pour les \u00e9metteurs de cartes de cr\u00e9dit. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4690264\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment \u00e0 ce sujet, un entrepreneur de par chez moi a un supermarch\u00e9, et il est venu me voir pour me dire, entre autres, \u00e0 quel point les cartes de cr\u00e9dit sont atrocement trop ch\u00e8res, et pour le consommateur et pour le d\u00e9taillant. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4690265\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> \u00c9videmment, les lib\u00e9raux ont \u00e9t\u00e9 tellement pr\u00e9tentieux tout au long de la campagne \u00e9lectorale qu'on va leur rappeler constamment qu'ils avaient promis que tout irait bien. Finalement, on assiste au retour des projets de loi omnibus. De plus, ils n'ont m\u00eame pas le culot d'aborder le vrai probl\u00e8me, \u00e0 savoir les taux abusifs qu'utilisent les cartes de cr\u00e9dit. Encore mieux, non seulement ils sont contents d'offrir nos infrastructures avec de gros rendements \u00e0 leurs grandes amies les banques, mais ils grossissent encore le d\u00e9ficit. \u00c0 qui iront ces int\u00e9r\u00eats? Ils iront aux banques. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4690266\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Pourquoi les lib\u00e9raux favorisent-ils les banques au d\u00e9triment des consommateurs du Qu\u00e9bec et du Canada?</p>"
