Mr. Speaker, the events of the last 10 days have given us the impression that it is the finance minister's billionaire buddies at the banks who are pushing the financial sector policy of this country, so we would like to let him clear the air. We are going to give him a chance.
Will the finance minister guarantee today to Canadians who are concerned about less competition that not one bank merger will take place until the government has changed the Bank Act to allow an open skies, open competition policy in the banking business in this country?
