Vertaling van "acknowledge that my introductory speech was probably too optimistic " (Engels → Frans) :

I acknowledge that my introductory speech was probably too optimistic, and I am sorry about that. I also said in my speech, however, that the optimism I had felt had been shattered by the events of last week.
Je reconnais que mon discours introductif était trop optimiste et je le regrette, mais j’ai également déclaré que cet optimisme que j’éprouvais avait été anéanti par les événements de la semaine dernière.

Before I get too far into my introductory remarks, I want to acknowledge and say thanks for the work of the chair of this committee for his work in championing financial literacy in Parliament through his private member's motion, M-269, by which he was able to raise awareness on this important issue, including the formal designation of November not just as a month to grow moustaches but also as Financial Literacy Month in the House of Commons, and that is a substantive achievement.
Avant de continuer, j'aimerais remercier le président du comité pour son travail de promotion de la littératie financière au Parlement. Le projet de loi M-269, d'initiative parlementaire, a permis non seulement de sensibiliser les gens à cette question importante, mais également de désigner officiellement novembre, déjà le mois de la moustache, le « Mois de la littératie financière » à la Chambre des communes.
