"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"544283\" data-originallang=\"en\">Yes. Very quickly, on the corruption issue, one of the things, Mr. Graham, that Canada is now doing is providing some salary support money. There's quite a gap between what civil servants are paid and what they would be paid to work for a warlord, or whatever. So I am told that CIDA is now into the salary support business, and I think that's a good thing.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"544283\" data-originallang=\"en\">Oui, tr\u00e8s rapidement. Une des choses que fait le Canada pour contrer la corruption, monsieur Graham, c'est d'accorder une aide financi\u00e8re pour la r\u00e9mun\u00e9ration. Il y a un \u00e9cart important entre la r\u00e9mun\u00e9ration que re\u00e7oivent les fonctionnaires et celle qu'ils recevraient s'ils \u00e9taient \u00e0 la solde d'un seigneur de guerre ou quelqu'un d'autre. On me dit que l'ACDI accorde des fonds pour relever les traitements, et c'est bien, \u00e0 mon avis. </p>"
