Traduction de «the meeting was going to start a little bit late » (Anglais → Français) :

When we checked the record, it was really suggested that the meeting was going to start a little bit late, at 9:10 a.m. or 9:15 a.m., but no mention was made that it wasn't going to go right to 11 a.m. We were a little blindsided by that.
Vérification faite des documents, il était proposé que la réunion commence un peu plus tard, soit à 9 h 10 ou 9 h 15, mais aucune mention qu'elle n'allait pas durer jusqu'à 11 heures. Cela nous a désagréablement surpris.

The other thing I was going to say, because Robert is right in that we seem to have a lot of one-hour witness panels, and when you go to this 10 minutes and it's a 10-minute presentation, and it's starting a little bit late, this fits in a little better, I think, with that one hour.
Aussi, comme l'a souligné Robert, il semble que nous ayons beaucoup de témoignages d'une heure. Donc, après un exposé de 10 minutes, il reste peu de temps pour les questions.

My sense when the deputy minister was here yesterday was that Health Canada had come into the scene a little bit late in the picture.
Lorsque le sous-ministre a comparu hier, j'ai cru comprendre que Santé Canada était intervenu un peu tard.

We're starting a little bit late because of votes in the House.
Nous commençons un peu en retard à cause des votes à la Chambre.

I was going to talk a little bit about the new government's attempt to make Canadians feel like there is a whole lot more crime than there used to be and that the only way we are going to be secure in our homes and neighbourhoods is if we throw everybody in the slammer and increase all the sentences.
J'allais parler brièvement de la tentative du nouveau gouvernement de faire croire aux Canadiens qu'il se commet beaucoup plus de crimes qu'avant et que le seul moyen de nous faire sentir en sécurité dans nos maisons et dans nos quartiers consiste à jeter tout le monde en prison et à durcir toutes les peines.
