"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"720085\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, last Friday the Ontario government made a $300 million transportation announcement for Hamilton. If this is more than just a pre-election promise, it will be good news for commuters, jobs, Hamilton's infrastructure and the environment.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"720086\" data-originallang=\"en\">However, in Hamilton the Liberals are not known for keeping their promises. It looks like McGuinty is setting up the federal government to be the scapegoat for reneging on this money too. The premier expects one-third of the funding to come from Ottawa.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"720087\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Will the <a data-HoCid=\"78771\" href=\"/politicians/lawrence-cannon/\" title=\"Lawrence Cannon\">Minister of Transport, Infrastructure and Communities</a> commit to funding his share of our public transit so Dalton McGuinty will have to keep at least one promise he has made to Hamiltonians?</p>",
