As I was saying earlier, we are voting against this bill because it does not meet the needs of the people. It meets the needs of a specific target group that the government wants in its corner come election time. That is all.</p>",

Comme je l'ai dit plus t\u00f4t, si nous d\u00e9cidons de voter contre ce projet de loi, c'est parce qu'il n'est pas fait pour r\u00e9pondre aux besoins des gens. Il est fait pour r\u00e9pondre aux besoins d'une client\u00e8le cibl\u00e9e et pointue que le gouvernement veut voir voter pour lui. C'est tout.</p>"
