He is a very dedicated member of Parliament and works very hard, very effectively and very diligently. When he speaks, members of the House listen to him because of the intelligence he brings to the debate.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1614436\" data-originallang=\"en\">He is absolutely right. British Columbians see this as a federal issue. They were essentially misled during the provincial election campaign. The B.C. Liberals support the HST with the inducement from the federal Conservatives supported by the federal Liberals. British Columbians were not told. In fact, they were told the opposite. They were told that the HST would not be coming in.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1614437\" data-originallang=\"en\">British Columbians who are very angry about this issue will certainly get a chance to vote on it with the upcoming byelection in New Westminster\u2014Coquitlam. I think we will see that many people in that area see it as a federal issue.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1614438\" data-originallang=\"en\">We will certainly see it in an upcoming federal campaign. If the government continues its provocation and we go into a federal campaign, British Columbia Conservatives and British Columbia Liberals are going to have to defend their vote and support for this awful HST, which attacks ordinary working families in British Columbia. They will have to defend themselves.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"1614435\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, le d\u00e9put\u00e9 de <a data-HoCid=\"128327\" href=\"/politicians/don-davies/\" title=\"Don Davies\">Vancouver Kingsway</a> est un des meilleurs de la promotion de 2008 \u00e0 la Chambre. C'est un d\u00e9put\u00e9 tr\u00e8s d\u00e9vou\u00e9 qui travaille tr\u00e8s fort, avec beaucoup d'efficacit\u00e9 et de diligence. Lorsqu'il prend la parole, les d\u00e9put\u00e9s de la Chambre l'\u00e9coutent, en raison de la perspicacit\u00e9 de ses propos. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1614436\" data-originallang=\"en\">Il a tout \u00e0 fait raison. Selon les Britanno-Colombiens, il s'agit d'une question f\u00e9d\u00e9rale. Ils ont \u00e9t\u00e9 induits en erreur pendant la campagne \u00e9lectorale provinciale. Les lib\u00e9raux provinciaux appuient la TVH avec les encouragements des conservateurs f\u00e9d\u00e9raux, appuy\u00e9s par les lib\u00e9raux f\u00e9d\u00e9raux. Les Britanno-Colombiens n'ont pas \u00e9t\u00e9 inform\u00e9s. D'ailleurs, on leur a plut\u00f4t dit le contraire. On leur a dit que l'harmonisation de la taxe n'aurait pas lieu. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1614437\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les Britanno-Colombiens pourront certainement exprimer leur col\u00e8re lors de l'\u00e9lection partielle dans la circonscription de New Westminster\u2014Coquitlam. Selon moi, bon nombre de personnes dans cette r\u00e9gion vont montrer qu'il s'agit d'une question f\u00e9d\u00e9rale.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1614438\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous pourrons le constater lors de la prochaine campagne f\u00e9d\u00e9rale. Si le gouvernement continue de provoquer les gens et que des \u00e9lections sont d\u00e9clench\u00e9es, les conservateurs et les lib\u00e9raux f\u00e9d\u00e9raux de la Colombie-Britannique devront d\u00e9fendre leur d\u00e9cision d'appuyer cette affreuse TVH qui s'attaque aux familles de travailleurs ordinaires de la Colombie-Britannique. Ils devront se d\u00e9fendre.</p>"
