Thank you.
You have said on other occasions that financial systems, world banking systems, are under stress. Some constituents in my riding are concerned about this. We see what is happening in the international banking system, particularly in the United States, and we wonder what impact that may have on the Canadian banking system. We know that we have good institutions and that they are sound. But we are facing a number of crises, so I'd like to know what your thoughts on this are.
