"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4397917\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Thank you, Mr. Chair. Welcome, Minister, and thank you for your comments and your continuing leadership.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4397918\" data-originallang=\"en\">I have to admit that I found your comments on the innovation and infrastructure side refreshing. The ability to move people, goods, services, and information from both rural and urban Canada to where they need to be is crucial for our long-term prosperity. On the innovation front, we need to be part of those ecosystems that exist and form every day. That's where the high-quality, high-paying jobs are, so we are going in the right direction. I'm glad to be part of a government that recognizes that.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4397919\" data-originallang=\"en\">What I would like to ask is more of a broad-based question. I've called Bill <a data-HoCid=\"8196581\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-15/\" title=\"An Act to implement certain provisions of the budget tabled in Parliament on March 22, 2016 and other measures\">C-15</a> \u201cthe blueprint after the budget\u201c. What I would like to know is how this begins a major step forward to enhance Canada's long-term growth profile and to strengthen our middle class, while doing so in a fiscally prudent manner.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4397917\" data-originallang=\"en\">Merci, monsieur le pr\u00e9sident. Je vous souhaite la bienvenue, monsieur le ministre, et je vous remercie de votre t\u00e9moignage et du leadership dont vous continuez de faire preuve. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4397918\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'ai trouv\u00e9 vos propos sur l'innovation et l'infrastructure tr\u00e8s rafra\u00eechissants. Il est crucial pour la prosp\u00e9rit\u00e9 \u00e0 long terme d'assurer le mouvement des gens, des biens, des services et de l'information de leur point d'origine dans les r\u00e9gions rurales et urbaines du Canada jusqu'\u00e0 leur destination souhait\u00e9e. Au chapitre de l'innovation, nous devons faire partie des \u00e9cosyst\u00e8mes qui existent et qui sont constamment cr\u00e9\u00e9s. C'est l\u00e0 que se trouvent les emplois de qualit\u00e9 bien r\u00e9mun\u00e9r\u00e9s; nous avan\u00e7ons dans la bonne direction. Je suis heureux de faire partie d'un gouvernement qui l'a compris.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4397919\" data-originallang=\"en\">Ma question est de nature un peu plus large. J'ai surnomm\u00e9 le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"8196581\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-15/\" title=\"An Act to implement certain provisions of the budget tabled in Parliament on March 22, 2016 and other measures\">C-15</a> \u00ab le plan de concr\u00e9tisation du budget \u00bb. J'aimerais que vous me disiez comment il nous permettra d'am\u00e9liorer le profil de croissance \u00e0 long terme du Canada et de renforcer notre classe moyenne tout en demeurant prudents sur le plan financier.</p>"
