"en": "<p>Mr. Speaker, I will repeat, to some extent, the question that I asked earlier in my speech regarding this debate.</p>\n<p>In its platform, the Bloc Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois says that \u201cit proposes to liberalize trade for all types of textiles, except those made by our producers\u201d.</p>\n<p>I would like to know if the Bloc really supports free trade or not. This is the same wishful thinking by the same opposition party that will never be in office, but nevertheless keeps asking for all sorts of things. So, based on the questions raised during question period and the speech made by the hon. member, I would like to know if Bloc Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois members support a protectionist free trade, or if they support globalization, because when their leader is travelling abroad he says something which, I hope, will never happen, namely that, some day, when Quebec is a free nation, it will engage in free trade with the rest of the world. However, in their platform, they say \u201c\u2014except those made by our producers\u201d.</p>\n<p>So, I would like to get some clarification here.</p>",
