Just last week the NDP had to admit that it broke the Canadian election law, that it violated the law in attempting to use the power of the political donation tax credit in order to fund a third party organization. It did so in violation of the law. It has now had to admit it.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2581854\" data-originallang=\"en\">On this side of the House, every single Conservative accused of wrongdoing has now been cleared. We are very pleased with the outcome. We will continue to stand by the fact that we followed all the rules.</p>",

La semaine derni\u00e8re, ce parti a admis avoir enfreint la Loi \u00e9lectorale du Canada lorsqu'il a tent\u00e9 d'utiliser l'attrait du cr\u00e9dit d'imp\u00f4t pour contribution \u00e0 un parti politique pour financer un tiers. Il l'a fait en violation de la loi. Il a d\u00fb le reconna\u00eetre.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2581854\" data-originallang=\"en\">De ce c\u00f4t\u00e9-ci de la Chambre, tous les conservateurs accus\u00e9s d'infraction ont \u00e9t\u00e9 blanchis. Nous nous r\u00e9jouissons grandement de ce d\u00e9nouement. Nous continuerons de maintenir que nous avons suivi les r\u00e8gles.</p>"
