"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1278336\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Madam Speaker, I would first like to congratulate my colleague for <a data-HoCid=\"128407\" href=\"/politicians/malcolm-allen/\" title=\"Malcolm Allen\">Welland</a>. He is correct, contrary to what the member for <a data-HoCid=\"128469\" href=\"/politicians/pierre-lemieux/\" title=\"Pierre Lemieux\">Glengarry\u2014Prescott\u2014Russell</a> said. What our Conservative colleague must tell us is what he would do with those who are unemployed, who cannot find another job, who cannot be retrained because they cannot go to another job. Would he adopt the same measures, for example, as those he adopted for women? The conservatives have taken a right-wing stance.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1278337\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Before asking my question, I will quickly remind them of the following: the Conservatives cut the national day care program; they cut assistance to women's offices\u2014only 4 of 16 remain; they cut literacy programs. They even put in their economic statement\u2014</p>",

Ce qu'il a dit est exact, contrairement \u00e0 ce qu'affirme le d\u00e9put\u00e9 de <a data-HoCid=\"128469\" href=\"/politicians/pierre-lemieux/\" title=\"Pierre Lemieux\">Glengarry\u2014Prescott\u2014Russell</a>. Ce que notre coll\u00e8gue conservateur doit nous dire, c'est ce qu'il fait des gens qui n'ont pas d'emploi, qui ne peuvent pas se replacer et qu'on ne peut pas former parce qu'ils ne peuvent pas se replacer. Prendrait-il les m\u00eames mesures, par exemple, que celles qu'il a prises \u00e0 l'\u00e9gard des femmes? Ce sont l\u00e0 des choix conservateurs carr\u00e9ment de droite.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1278337\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Avant de poser ma question, je vais tr\u00e8s bri\u00e8vement rappeler ceci: ce sont les conservateurs qui ont coup\u00e9 le programme national de garderies. Ils ont coup\u00e9 l'aide aux maisons de femmes; sur 16 maisons, il en reste quatre. Ils ont coup\u00e9 les programmes en alphab\u00e9tisation. Ils ont m\u00eame mis dans leur \u00e9nonc\u00e9 \u00e9conomique...</p>"
