"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1846304\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I welcome the opportunity to say that the Liberal Party, which is the official opposition, will not be creating political instability based upon this budget. As a consequence we will, somewhat reluctantly of course, be required to make sure the government wins its vote. How we do that is a matter of our own discretion.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1846305\" data-originallang=\"en\">I want to point out that in our view the incompetence of the government is manifest. The recovery that is taking place and the green shoots that are growing have nothing to do with the management of this economy on the fiscal side. On the monetary side, the governor of the Bank of Canada has been brilliant. He has managed things very well. Unlike my hon. friend, who does not have to worry about things such as Canadian political instability, we do have to take the more responsible course.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"1846304\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, je suis heureux de saisir cette occasion pour dire que le Parti lib\u00e9ral, qui est l'opposition officielle, ne se servira pas de ce budget pour plonger le pays dans l'instabilit\u00e9 politique. Ainsi, nous devrons \u2014 avec une certaine r\u00e9ticence, bien s\u00fbr \u2014 nous assurer que le gouvernement gagne son vote. Toutefois, la fa\u00e7on dont nous nous y prendrons demeure \u00e0 notre enti\u00e8re discr\u00e9tion.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1846305\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je tiens \u00e0 signaler que, selon nous, l'incomp\u00e9tence du gouvernement est manifeste. Les signes de relance que nous voyons n'ont rien \u00e0 voir avec la gestion financi\u00e8re de notre \u00e9conomie. Par contre, du c\u00f4t\u00e9 mon\u00e9taire, le gouverneur de la Banque du Canada a \u00e9t\u00e9 g\u00e9nial. Il a tr\u00e8s bien g\u00e9r\u00e9 la situation. Contrairement \u00e0 mon ami, qui n'a pas \u00e0 se pr\u00e9occuper de choses comme l'instabilit\u00e9 politique au Canada, nous devons agir de fa\u00e7on plus responsable.</p>"
