It should be noted that Quebec's unemployment rate of 6.8% is the lowest it has been in 33 years. That proves that we are doing something about real issues.</p>",

Il faut savoir que, pour la premi\u00e8re fois en 33 ans, le taux de ch\u00f4mage est le plus bas au Qu\u00e9bec, soit de 6,8 p. 100. Cela d\u00e9montre que l'on s'occupe des vraies choses.</p>"
