        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"757121\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I would like to correct the hon. member's statement of what Canada's Conservative government is doing for the auto sector.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"757122\" data-originallang=\"en\">I would like to remind her that it was this Conservative government that conducted a manufacturing study across the entire country. We came up with 22 recommendations. Of those 22 recommendations, the <a data-HoCid=\"78777\" href=\"/politicians/jim-flaherty/\" title=\"Jim Flaherty\">Minister of Finance</a> addressed 21 of them in our last budget.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"757123\" data-originallang=\"en\">One of them in particular was so important, the two year writeoff of the capital cost allowance, that Canadian manufacturers and exporters actually said that the budget last year was the best manufacturing budget ever for Canada, ever. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"757124\" data-originallang=\"en\">Here is the troubling part of this. This was a unanimous report. In other words, it was supported not just by the Conservative members, not just by the NDP, not just by the Bloc, but it was also supported by the Liberal Party of Canada. I want the member to stand up and state why she voted against that budget. Why did she vote against her own critic's recommendations for the manufacturing sector?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"757125\" data-originallang=\"en\">As she says, I live in Oshawa. What this government has done is it has addressed the outstanding complaints of the auto industry after the 13 years of waste and mismanagement by the Liberal government. The Liberals did absolutely nothing. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"757126\" data-originallang=\"en\">What did we do? In the last budget we talked about $400 million for the Windsor-Detroit border crossing. We talked about our new apprenticeship program for human resources. We talked about science and technology. The Liberals voted against the budget and that is a shame.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"757121\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je voudrais corriger la d\u00e9claration de la d\u00e9put\u00e9e au sujet de ce que fait le gouvernement conservateur du Canada pour le secteur de l'automobile. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"757122\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je lui rappelle que c'est le gouvernement conservateur qui a men\u00e9 une \u00e9tude sur le secteur de la fabrication dans tout le pays. Nous avons d\u00e9gag\u00e9 22 recommandations. Le <a data-HoCid=\"78777\" href=\"/politicians/jim-flaherty/\" title=\"Jim Flaherty\">ministre des Finances</a> en a abord\u00e9 21 dans notre budget de l'ann\u00e9e derni\u00e8re. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"757123\" data-originallang=\"en\">L'une d'elles en particulier, la d\u00e9duction pour amortissement sur deux ans, \u00e9tait si importante que les fabricants et les exportateurs canadiens ont dit que le budget de l'ann\u00e9e derni\u00e8re \u00e9tait le meilleur budget jamais vu pour le secteur manufacturier du Canada. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"757124\" data-originallang=\"en\">Voici ce qui est troublant. Le rapport \u00e9tait unanime. Autrement dit, il a \u00e9t\u00e9 appuy\u00e9 non seulement par les d\u00e9put\u00e9s conservateurs, n\u00e9o-d\u00e9mocrates et bloquistes, mais \u00e9galement par ceux du Parti lib\u00e9ral du Canada. Je veux que la d\u00e9put\u00e9e dise pourquoi elle a vot\u00e9 contre ce budget. Pourquoi a-t-elle vot\u00e9 contre les recommandations de son propre porte-parole \u00e0 l'\u00e9gard du secteur manufacturier? </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"757125\" data-originallang=\"en\">Comme elle le dit, j'habite \u00e0 Oshawa. Notre gouvernement s'est occup\u00e9 des dol\u00e9ances de l'industrie automobile apr\u00e8s 13 ans de gaspillage et de mauvaise gestion de la part du gouvernement lib\u00e9ral. Les lib\u00e9raux n'ont absolument rien fait. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"757126\" data-originallang=\"en\">Qu'avons-nous fait? Dans le dernier budget, nous avons parl\u00e9 d'un montant de 400 millions de dollars pour le corridor frontalier de Windsor-Detroit. Nous avons parl\u00e9 de notre nouveau programme d'apprentissage dans le secteur des ressources humaines. Nous avons parl\u00e9 des sciences et de la technologie. Les lib\u00e9raux ont vot\u00e9 contre le budget et c'est honteux. </p>"
