It was clear and unequivocal. In our Speech from the Throne in the first session of this Parliament, we identified five priorities and we delivered. Canadians are happy. The opposition is not. In this throne speech our government has identified five more priorities and we will deliver. Canadians are happy. The opposition is not.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"750163\" data-originallang=\"en\">Regarding our economy under the leadership of our <a data-HoCid=\"78738\" href=\"/politicians/stephen-harper/\" title=\"Stephen Harper\">Prime Minister</a> and our government, our economy is strong, and it is growing. We have the lowest unemployment rate in 30 years.</p>",

Il \u00e9tait clair et sans \u00e9quivoque. Dans notre premier discours du Tr\u00f4ne, nous avons \u00e9tabli cinq priorit\u00e9s et nous avons produit des r\u00e9sultats concrets. Les Canadiens sont heureux. Les d\u00e9put\u00e9s de l'opposition ne le sont pas. Dans ce discours du Tr\u00f4ne, notre gouvernement a \u00e9tabli cinq autres priorit\u00e9s et nous produirons encore des r\u00e9sultats concrets. Les Canadiens sont heureux. Les d\u00e9put\u00e9s de l'opposition ne le sont pas.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"750163\" data-originallang=\"en\">Sous la direction de notre <a data-HoCid=\"78738\" href=\"/politicians/stephen-harper/\" title=\"Stephen Harper\">premier ministre</a> et de notre gouvernement, notre \u00e9conomie est vigoureuse et en pleine croissance. Notre taux de ch\u00f4mage est au plus bas depuis 30 ans.</p>"
