Madam Speaker, the track records of both the current government and the previous Liberal government are grim. New Democrats in the House have been raising issues around consumer protection for a number of years. I just need to reference the payday loans, which is another scandalous aspect of lack of regulation.
We need some solid consumer protection regulation put in place so that consumers can have some confidence that when they engage in a transaction, they are actually getting fair and reasonable interaction between themselves and the credit card companies.
