"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5602430\" data-originallang=\"en\">I want to kind of steer you to a piece of infrastructure that is lacking in the north\u2014a lot of people are discussing it now\u2014and that's the need for a port. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5602431\" data-originallang=\"en\">We have no ports in the north. We bring in a lot of fuel from the Asian part of the world, and because we have to transport it up the Mackenzie River, we have to transfer it to a smaller barge, sometimes in raging storms. You have barges bouncing up and down while trying to transfer fuel. It's an accident waiting to happen. We still don't have any double-hulled barges shipping on the Mackenzie River, so they're all going up on single barges. We have no place for the cruise ships to come up to dump their grey water. I'm not sure what they're doing with their water, because nobody is watching. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5602432\" data-originallang=\"en\">Could you maybe talk a bit about where we should open a port? Is that something you would recommend? </p>",

Nous importons beaucoup de carburant de l'Asie, mais comme il faut le transporter le long du fleuve Mackenzie, nous devons le transf\u00e9rer \u00e0 une barge plus petite, parfois en pleine temp\u00eate et au risque d'avoir un accident. Il n\u2019y a toujours pas de barges \u00e0 double coque qui circulent sur le fleuve Mackenzie, alors le transport se fait sur des monocoques. Nous n\u2019avons aucun endroit o\u00f9 les navires de croisi\u00e8re peuvent venir d\u00e9verser leurs eaux grises. Je ne sais pas ce qu\u2019ils font de leur eau, parce que personne ne les surveille. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5602432\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pourriez-vous nous dire o\u00f9 il faudrait ouvrir un port? Est-ce quelque chose que vous recommanderiez? </p>"
