Finance committee  Thank you. Good morning, everyone. Just when the CBA had submitted its pre-budget consultation brief to the committee, the global economy entered a troubled phase. There is no longer any doubt about the increase of economic uncertainty around the world. As we all recently lea

Finance committee  I think there is evidence. On your point about sitting on a lot of cash, we've seen the private sector increasingly ramping up their investments over the last 15 months. It isn't just me saying this. No less of an authority than the Governor of the Bank of Canada said last week

Finance committee  There were many lessons out of the financial crisis, but one of the key lessons was the critical importance of having a coherent, strong, focused, regulatory system. We have that on the prudential side in Canada and on the consumer side, but we do not have that on the security si

Finance committee  The second line of that song was “What it is ain't exactly clear”. Obviously there is a worldwide movement going on here, and we're listening very carefully, very closely. There are people with concern. Obviously there's a lot of uncertainty about the economic future, and we have

Finance committee  I am sorry, but I will have to speak in English. Fraud is an issue, and it has many forms in the financial sector. The bad guys are out there and they're very motivated to do bad things, and we are always trying to stay one step ahead of that. The challenge with fraud, and I thi

Finance committee  One thing I have learned as I've gone through the public policy world on both sides of the fence—I used to be in the government and I'm in the private sector now—is to be aware of the law of unintended consequences. A worry is that if you establish, say, an insurance fund against

Finance committee  I understand the case of Earl Jones. I would say in the case of Earl Jones, and I go back to the point I made originally.... As I understand the facts, this was an individual who was operating completely outside the regulatory system based on a system of personal trust, which he

Finance committee  Sure. I hope I didn't make too much of a face, because I certainly respect Mr. Jackson's work.

October 18th, 2011Committee meeting

Terry Campbell

Finance committee  It was maybe just a raised eyebrow. As Mr. Jackson said, reasonable people can have reasonable discussions about this. On the PRPP, I may make about three or four points. A comment was made that there are high costs. In fact, the PRPP is designed, by definition, to be low cost

Industry committee  Thank you very much. I'd like to update Mr. Revell's title. He just got a new job. He's also doing two jobs at once—the senior vice-president and chief information officer of retail and business banking at CIBC. Outside of his banking hours, he spends a lot of time supporting te

Industry committee  First of all, I should say I'm deeply sympathetic to Diane. Lightning strikes twice for you, but there we go.

November 16th, 2011Committee meeting

Terry Campbell

Industry committee  I am sympathetic. Diane and I actually have a lot of good conversations on things. Let me say a couple of things. First of all, on the code--Diane mentioned the code, because it relates to a lot of these issues--we think the government did a very good job on the code. We thought

Terry Campbell

Industry committee  First of all, I would say--and I say this with a lot of respect for Diane, because she does great work for her constituency--there is a lot of exaggeration and hyping up on the cost side. I invite you to consider the benefits that accrue to retailers and businesses with a payment

Industry committee  I'm not so sure.

Industry committee  Yes, it's my turn with the violin. I'd like to take just a moment, Mr. Chair.
