"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1347189\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, one thing is certain, and that is that the Bloc Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois wants to protect the values and interests of Quebeckers. The government says it is open to discussions with the world. At a time of crisis, the Premier of Quebec took the trouble to spend a few weeks discussing a possible free trade agreement between Quebec and the rest of the European Union with EU representatives. We have to keep in mind that Quebec has a population of 7 million, while Canada has a population of 33 million. If we want to lead the world in aluminum, nickel, aerospace and many other industries, we have to be able to open up to world markets. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1347190\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Obviously, when we enter into agreements and analyze them on a macroeconomic level, we see that they have advantages and disadvantages. One of the disadvantages of this agreement has to do with the shipbuilding sector. However, because of the political divide in this House, which is supported by the NDP, we are unable to tackle the issue of a real shipbuilding policy.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"1347189\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, une chose est certaine, le Bloc qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois a un int\u00e9r\u00eat particulier, soit celui de la protection des valeurs et des int\u00e9r\u00eats des Qu\u00e9b\u00e9coises et des Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois. On se dit ouverts aux discussions avec le monde. En temps de crise, le premier ministre du Qu\u00e9bec a pris la peine d'aller passer quelques semaines pour discuter avec l'Union europ\u00e9enne d'un possible accord de libre-\u00e9change entre le Qu\u00e9bec et le reste de l'Union europ\u00e9enne. Il faut \u00eatre conscients que le Qu\u00e9bec a une population de sept millions d'habitants et le Canada de 33 millions. Si on veut avoir des leaders au niveau des march\u00e9s mondiaux dans les domaines de l'aluminium, du nickel, de l'a\u00e9rospatiale et dans de nombreuses autres industries, il faut \u00eatre capable de s'ouvrir aux march\u00e9s du monde.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1347190\" data-originallang=\"fr\">\u00c9videmment, quand on fait des ententes et qu'on les analyse de fa\u00e7on macro-\u00e9conomique, on r\u00e9alise qu'il y a des avantages et des inconv\u00e9nients. Un des inconv\u00e9nients est pr\u00e9sentement li\u00e9 au secteur de la construction navale. Toutefois, la division politique en cette Chambre, appuy\u00e9e par le NPD, fait qu'on ne peut pas s'attaquer au dossier d'une v\u00e9ritable politique de la construction navale.</p>"
