"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1610588\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I want to tie into the final comments made by the member opposite.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1610589\" data-originallang=\"en\">I listened with interest to his speech. He made some interesting points. I would first like to address his comment with regard to judging a government based upon what it doing during the bad times.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1610590\" data-originallang=\"en\">It is newsworthy, and maybe the hon. member has not heard, but today the Canadian <a data-HoCid=\"78777\" href=\"/politicians/jim-flaherty/\" title=\"Jim Flaherty\">finance minister</a> will receive yet another international award. He is going to be in Istanbul to receive an award being presented to him by <em>Euromoney</em> magazine. He will be accepting this on behalf of the Canadian government. They are recognizing him as the finance minister of the year, recognizing what this government has done during tough times.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1610591\" data-originallang=\"en\">The World Economic Forum has indicated that Canada will lead other countries out of this downturn. We see the same type of analysis from the IMF.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1610592\" data-originallang=\"en\"> I appreciate that the hon. member will judge a government by what it does during the hard times. Clearly he will join the ranks of the international community in recognizing that Canada is leading on this front.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1610593\" data-originallang=\"en\">However, in answering the last question, he went after home renovators. He said that there were some nasty people out there. I would give the member the opportunity, because I know he has plenty in his own riding, to withdraw that comment.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"1610588\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je voudrais donner suite aux commentaires du d\u00e9put\u00e9 d'en face. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1610589\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'ai \u00e9cout\u00e9 attentivement son discours. Il a soulev\u00e9 des points int\u00e9ressants. Je voudrais d'abord revenir sur ce qu'il a dit, \u00e0 savoir qu'on juge un gouvernement aux d\u00e9cisions qu'il prend pendant les p\u00e9riodes difficiles.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1610590\" data-originallang=\"en\">Il vaut la peine de signaler, et peut-\u00eatre le d\u00e9put\u00e9 n'est-il pas au courant, que le <a data-HoCid=\"78777\" href=\"/politicians/jim-flaherty/\" title=\"Jim Flaherty\">ministre des Finances</a> canadien va se voir d\u00e9cerner aujourd'hui une autre r\u00e9compense internationale. Il se rend \u00e0 Istanbul pour y recevoir une r\u00e9compense qui lui est d\u00e9cern\u00e9e par le magazine <em>Euromoney</em>. Il l'acceptera au nom du gouvernement canadien. On lui d\u00e9cerne le titre de ministre des Finances de l'ann\u00e9e, reconnaissant ainsi \u00e0 travers lui le travail que le gouvernement a fait en cette p\u00e9riode difficile.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1610591\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le Forum \u00e9conomique mondial a affirm\u00e9 que c'est le Canada qui montrera aux autres pays la voie pour sortir de la r\u00e9cession. Le FMI fait la m\u00eame analyse. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1610592\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je saurai gr\u00e9 au d\u00e9put\u00e9 de juger un gouvernement \u00e0 ce qu'il fait pendant les p\u00e9riodes difficiles. Il reconna\u00eetra certainement, comme le fait la communaut\u00e9 internationale, que le Canada montre la voie \u00e0 cet \u00e9gard. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1610593\" data-originallang=\"en\">Cependant, dans le dernier point qu'il a soulev\u00e9, il s'en est pris \u00e0 ceux qui font de la r\u00e9novation. Il a dit que certains d'entre eux \u00e9taient malhonn\u00eates. \u00c9tant donn\u00e9 qu'il y a beaucoup de sp\u00e9cialistes de la r\u00e9novation dans la circonscription du d\u00e9put\u00e9, je vais donc lui donner l'occasion de retirer ces propos.</p>"
