"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1802709\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, the Bloc falsely claims that there is nothing good for Quebec in the budget.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1802710\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Our government has brought down a budget that will allow Quebeckers to benefit from tax cuts, resources for innovation and commercialization, spinoffs from the economic action plan that will help preserve and create jobs, and tariff elimination, which will make businesses more competitive.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1802711\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The budget also contains other measures for Quebec: continued investment in infrastructure; assistance for our fishers; potential access to $75 million for livestock processing, in agriculture; several million dollars for community revitalization; help to make SMEs and communities more competitive; and research and development initiatives for green energy in support of forestry industry workers. More importantly, Quebec will continue to benefit from significant federal transfers.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1802712\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The Bloc Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois claims to defend the interests of Quebec, but in fact, it is only defending its own interests. Our Conservative government is getting things done for Quebeckers and Canadians.</p>",
