I have seen the NDP Party vote against principles it claims to embrace, whether it be the principles under GERD, the Kelowna accord or the child care agreements that the previous Liberal government signed with the provinces.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"943574\" data-originallang=\"en\">I remember the 1988 election and that reminiscence will be the subject for another time.</p>",

J'ai vu le NPD voter contre des principes qu'il pr\u00e9tend \u00e9pouser, notamment en ce qui a trait aux d\u00e9penses brutes en R-D, \u00e0 l'accord de Kelowna et aux accords sur les garderies conclus entre l'ancien gouvernement lib\u00e9ral et les provinces.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"943574\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je me souviens des \u00e9lections de 1988, mais nous y reviendrons une autre fois.</p>"
