        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"3048728\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Hiebert, you have come here with a list of amendments we have not yet seen. Your bill casts a very wide net. All transactions and disbursements over $5,000 from a pension fund or retirement plan that is linked in whole or in part to union workers must now be disclosed to taxpayers.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3048729\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I feel that you are creating a bureaucratic monster, a mountain of paperwork. Given that the Conservative Party wants to reduce the size of government, to reduce paperwork and administration, I find it a little strange that a member of that party is introducing a bill that instead is going to create a bureaucratic and administrative nightmare.</p>",

Votre projet de loi est extr\u00eamement vaste. Toute transaction ou d\u00e9bours\u00e9 de plus de 5 000 $ d'un fonds de pension ou d'un r\u00e9gime de retraite qui est li\u00e9 en tout ou en partie \u00e0 des travailleurs syndiqu\u00e9s devra maintenant \u00eatre d\u00e9voil\u00e9 \u00e0 l'ensemble des contribuables. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3048729\" data-originallang=\"fr\">J'ai l'impression que vous cr\u00e9ez un monstre bureaucratique, de la paperasserie administrative. Compte tenu du fait que le Parti conservateur veut r\u00e9duire la taille de l'\u00c9tat, la paperasse et l'administration, je trouve un peu \u00e9trange qu'un membre de ce parti propose un projet de loi qui, au contraire, va cr\u00e9er un cauchemar bureaucratique et administratif.</p>"
