Mr. Speaker, we are certainly glad to hear that. We were just a little concerned that we would have one of the bank presidents up here introducing the budget in three weeks.
The fact is other banks are not going to sit around and wait while the Royal Bank and the Bank of Montreal eat their lunch for them. This is just the beginning and consumers do not seem to have a voice in this whole process.
What plans does the minister have to deal with any more bank mergers, or should we be directing that question to the presidents of the other banks?
