"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"3031430\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, there are two sets of rules governing arts and culture: one if the artists are liked by the Conservatives, and one if they are not. The Canadian Conference of the Arts is the latest example.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3031431\" data-originallang=\"en\"> When the minister does not like an art exhibit or an organization or the name of a rock band, an unmistakable chill gets sent out across the land.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3031432\" data-originallang=\"en\">Canada is big, complex and diverse. Do we really want to have our arts and culture sector governed out of the office of one politician in this country?</p>",
