I know he and my other colleagues feel clearly in our hearts that we are here to represent all of our constituents.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2452572\" data-originallang=\"en\">While I have been here, I have not heard members on the other side debate their reasons. They will stand and ask questions, but I have not heard debate. It is very rich that they criticize the postal workers who are locked out and say that it is their fault.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2452573\" data-originallang=\"en\">There has been a record rate of bankruptcy in my province of small businesses. Rural post offices have been shut down. The services in the cities have been limited. Where have the Conservatives been for the small business people for the last three years?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"2452571\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je comprends que le d\u00e9put\u00e9 parle avec son c\u0153ur et tient des propos louables. Je sais que lui et mes autres coll\u00e8gues savent du fond du c\u0153ur qu\u2019ils sont ici pour repr\u00e9senter tous nos concitoyens. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2452572\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Jusqu\u2019ici, je n\u2019ai entendu aucun d\u00e9put\u00e9 conservateur exposer ses raisons. Ils posent des questions, mais je n\u2019ai pas entendu d\u2019arguments. Ils critiquent volontiers les travailleurs des postes qui sont en lock-out et disent que c\u2019est de leur faute. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2452573\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Dans ma province, les petites entreprises ont enregistr\u00e9 un taux de faillites record. Des bureaux de poste ont ferm\u00e9 en milieu rural. Les services offerts dans les villes sont limit\u00e9s. Qu\u2019ont fait les conservateurs ces trois derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es pour les petites entreprises?</p>"
