"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"2125008\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Liberals held an invitation-only event asking women to make a big donation to join the Laurier Club, a high-dollar donor group with privileged access to Liberal Party insiders. They sold the night as an event to \u201cbuild your networks in the capital\u201d. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2125009\" data-originallang=\"en\">Selling access to female Liberal MPs, is that how the Liberals reach out to Canadian women? Why are the Liberals interested only in women who can pay $1,000 at the door?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2125010\" data-originallang=\"en\">Our government cares about all Canadian women. We have listened to the concerns of Canadian women. That is why we have taken action to toughen our crime laws. That is why we have given families a choice in child care through the universal child-care benefit. While the Liberals only care about the chequebook in the women's handbag, we have taken action to protect the jobs of Canadian women and the safety and economic well-being of all families. </p>",
