        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1879309\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, given the dirty tricks that happened in the House last Friday, every single Liberal member of Parliament should be standing up this evening and voting against this agreement on that basis alone. The reason why the Conservatives are bringing in dirty tricks is that the public is clearly not on their side.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1879310\" data-originallang=\"en\">As the member well knows, in Toronto just a week and a half ago, there was another standing-room-only crowd coming forward. Many of his constituents and constituents from other Liberal-held ridings in Toronto were saying no to this agreement. The reality is that there is not a single independent human rights organization on the planet that agrees with the Liberal Party.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1879311\" data-originallang=\"en\">My question is very simple. I do not want any skating from the member, even though he has said in the past that he likes to skate. Given this amendment that is being put forward and given the fact that so many organizations are saying they want to come forward to the trade committee and have their voice heard on the amendment and on the agreement themselves, will the member say publicly that the Liberal Party will support full and comprehensive hearings at the trade committee, if it takes weeks or months, so everybody's voice is heard?</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"1879309\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, compte tenu des coups fourr\u00e9s qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 port\u00e9s \u00e0 la Chambre vendredi dernier, tous les d\u00e9put\u00e9s lib\u00e9raux devraient voter ce soir contre cet accord, ne serait-ce que pour cette raison. Si les conservateurs portent de tels coups fourr\u00e9s, c'est parce que le public n'est manifestement pas de leur c\u00f4t\u00e9.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1879310\" data-originallang=\"en\">Comme le d\u00e9put\u00e9 le sait tr\u00e8s bien, il y a une semaine et demie \u00e0 peine, une autre foule s'est rassembl\u00e9e \u00e0 Toronto. De nombreux citoyens de sa circonscription et d'autres circonscriptions lib\u00e9rales de Toronto s'\u00e9taient regroup\u00e9s pour protester contre cet accord. D'ailleurs, pas un seul organisme ind\u00e9pendant de d\u00e9fense des droits de la personne sur la plan\u00e8te n'est d'accord avec le Parti lib\u00e9ral. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1879311\" data-originallang=\"en\">Ma question est tr\u00e8s simple. Je ne veux pas de patinage de la part du d\u00e9put\u00e9, m\u00eame s'il a d\u00e9j\u00e0 dit qu'il aimait le sport. Compte tenu de l'amendement dont nous sommes saisis et du fait que tant d'organismes disent vouloir t\u00e9moigner devant le Comit\u00e9 du commerce au sujet de l'amendement et de l'accord, le d\u00e9put\u00e9 d\u00e9clarera-t-il publiquement que le Parti lib\u00e9ral va appuyer la tenue d'audiences exhaustives \u00e0 ce comit\u00e9, m\u00eame si cela prend des semaines ou des mois, afin que tous puissent \u00eatre entendus? </p>"
