        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"311115\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, the government has not shown any ability to communicate even among its own members. Within its own cabinet, there does not seem to be a lot of communication. The thought that the government would move ahead to establish the kinds of relationships it needs with the provinces with its internal failures of communication does not seem to follow.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"311116\" data-originallang=\"en\">When it started out, there was good hope that it could pull this together and create a momentum within the provinces, which has to happen. However, without efforts being put in, without a sense that the government wants to communicate and work cooperatively with the provinces, we are not going to end up in 2006 with a wait times guarantee in place.</p>",

Au sein du Cabinet, il ne semble pas y avoir beaucoup de communication. Il semble peu probable que le gouvernement r\u00e9ussisse \u00e0 nouer avec les provinces le genre de relations dont il a besoin si l'on en juge d'apr\u00e8s ses probl\u00e8mes de communication interne.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"311116\" data-originallang=\"en\">Au d\u00e9but, nous avions bon espoir qu'il r\u00e9ussirait \u00e0 amener les provinces \u00e0 coop\u00e9rer, ce qui est indispensable. Toutefois, s'il ne d\u00e9ploie pas les efforts voulus, s'il ne tente pas de communiquer et de coop\u00e9rer avec les provinces, le gouvernement ne parviendra s\u00fbrement pas \u00e0 mettre en oeuvre sa garantie relative aux d\u00e9lais d'attente en 2006.</p>"
