"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8219020\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I will answer first because I have been following the work done by the city of Montreal closely. I can tell you that of the revenue generated by the gasoline tax in Quebec, $200 million has been dedicated to our city. That is the best thing that can happen. It is like a gift from heaven, because it allows us to invest in a truly stable way. We know that we will have this money, which enables us to carry out maintenance on all our systems, replace the lead pipes, and so on. We know that we need that money, that we are going to continue needing it, and that it will always be there.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8219021\" data-originallang=\"fr\">That is the kind of funding we want to have, because, otherwise, we will not get it done. We have to do maintenance, we have to adapt to climate change, and we have to comply with the new secondary wastewater treatment regulations. That amounts, at a minimum, to an additional $2.4 billion.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8219022\" data-originallang=\"fr\">That is just gargantuan. It is enormous.</p>",

Je peux vous dire que, des revenus g\u00e9n\u00e9r\u00e9s par la taxe sur l'essence au Qu\u00e9bec, 200 millions de dollars sont d\u00e9di\u00e9s \u00e0 notre ville. C'est la meilleure chose qui peut arriver. C'est comme un cadeau du ciel, parce que cela nous permet d'investir de mani\u00e8re vraiment stable. Nous savons que nous avons cet argent, qui nous permet d'effectuer la maintenance de tous nos r\u00e9seaux, de changer les conduites de plomb, et ainsi de suite. Nous savons que nous avons besoin de cet argent, que nous allons en avoir besoin en continu, et qu'il sera toujours l\u00e0.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8219021\" data-originallang=\"fr\">C'est ce genre de financement que nous souhaitons avoir parce que, sinon, nous n'y arriverons pas. Nous devons faire de la maintenance, nous devons nous adapter au changement climatique et nous devons respecter la nouvelle r\u00e9glementation relative au traitement secondaire des eaux us\u00e9es. Cela repr\u00e9sente, au minimum, 2,4 milliards de dollars de plus.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8219022\" data-originallang=\"fr\">C'est juste pharaonique. C'est \u00e9norme.</p>"
