"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1979844\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Hazell, you didn't need to apologize. I understood completely your intention, that in fact this bill and this segment of the bill is inappropriately in front of the finance committee. It should properly be before the environment committee. That was what you intended, and you did not intend to insult any of us. There's no point making mountains out of molehills here.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1979845\" data-originallang=\"en\">I did want to get to some of the substance of the issue. Could you put some flesh on the bones of what this is going to mean? Frankly, we have been told by various groups that there are all kinds of jurisdictions, provincial, federal agencies, and others, and they're falling all over each other doing various environmental assessments, and that this is an attempt to rationalize it and streamline.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1979846\" data-originallang=\"en\">It seems to me that in the notes given to us by the Department of Finance, this gives the Minister of the Environment the power to establish the scope of any project in relationship to which an environmental assessment is conducted. I take it that's the core of the objection. What's not clear to me is how that minister would exercise that scope of jurisdiction. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1979847\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Lindgren?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"1979844\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur Hazell, pas besoin de vous excuser. J'ai tr\u00e8s bien compris que vous vouliez dire que ce projet de loi, cette partie de ce projet de loi, ne devrait pas se trouver devant le Comit\u00e9 des finances. L'examen devrait \u00eatre fait par le Comit\u00e9 de l'environnement. C'est ce que vous vouliez dire, et vous ne vouliez insulter personne. Pas besoin d'en faire tout un plat.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1979845\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je voulais tout de m\u00eame que nous parlions du coeur du probl\u00e8me. Pouvez-vous nous expliquer ce que tout \u00e7a signifierait? Soyons francs: divers groupes nous ont dit que tous les ordres de gouvernement, que ce soit des organismes provinciaux, f\u00e9d\u00e9raux ou autres, se chevauchent en exigeant diverses \u00e9valuations environnementales. Ils nous ont dit aussi qu'on cherche \u00e0 rationaliser et \u00e0 simplifier le processus.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1979846\" data-originallang=\"en\">Il me semble que dans les notes qui nous ont \u00e9t\u00e9 fournies par le minist\u00e8re des Finances, on donne au ministre de l'Environnement le pouvoir d'\u00e9tablir l'\u00e9tendue des projets qui doivent subir une \u00e9valuation environnementale. Je pense que c'est l\u00e0 que nous avons un probl\u00e8me. La mani\u00e8re dont le ministre peut exercer ce pouvoir n'est pas \u00e9tablie clairement.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1979847\" data-originallang=\"en\">M. Lindgren?</p>"
