Whether they succeed or do not succeed will be obvious when we vote on the bill.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1130446\" data-originallang=\"en\">Also, the Liberal Party does not have the same kind of luxury as the New Democratic Party or the Bloc have in not being the official opposition. If we vote against the legislation, we know there will be an election and that is a determination for the leader to make.</p>",

Si nous votons contre cette mesure l\u00e9gislative, nous savons qu'il y aura des \u00e9lections, mais c'est une d\u00e9cision qui revient au chef du parti. </p>"
