"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6822602\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Thank you. That's at least clear.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6822603\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> Mr. Prud'homme, you mentioned in your statement that you would like to have permanent federal government financial support. I'm pleased to inform you that it is the wish of our leader, <a data-HoCid=\"263838\" href=\"/politicians/erin-otoole/\" title=\"Erin O'Toole\">Erin O'Toole</a>, to secure stable funding for post-secondary institutions in minority language communities. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6822604\" data-originallang=\"fr\">One thing I find somewhat shocking\u2014and I was previously part of the government\u2014is that budgets aren't indexed. For example, you mentioned a provincial-level increase of 0.7%.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6822605\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Have there been any federal increases since the OLEP freeze? What do you think will happen now? How do you go about looking for additional funding so you can remain flexible and not charge excessively high tuition fees?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6822602\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Je vous remercie, cela a le m\u00e9rite d'\u00eatre clair.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6822603\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur Prud'homme, dans votre allocution, vous avez mentionn\u00e9 que vous souhaitiez avoir un appui financier permanent du gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral. Je suis quand m\u00eame content de vous informer que c'est le souhait de notre chef, <a data-HoCid=\"263838\" href=\"/politicians/erin-otoole/\" title=\"Erin O'Toole\">Erin O'Toole</a>, de s'assurer d'un financement stable pour les \u00e9tablissements postsecondaires en milieu linguistique minoritaire.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6822604\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Une chose que je trouve un peu choquante \u2014 et j'ai fait partie du gouvernement ant\u00e9rieurement \u2014, c'est qu'on n'indexe pas les budgets. Vous avez parl\u00e9 d'une augmentation, par exemple, au palier provincial, de 0,7 %.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6822605\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Y a-t-il eu des augmentations au niveau f\u00e9d\u00e9ral depuis le gel du PLOE? Comment voyez-vous la suite des choses? Quelles sont les pistes pour aller chercher du financement additionnel pour maintenir votre flexibilit\u00e9 et ne pas imposer des frais de scolarit\u00e9 trop \u00e9lev\u00e9s aux \u00e9tudiants?</p>"
