        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"2810196\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, there are a lot of generalities, but what I am still looking for are the specifics. The specifics are becoming increasingly apparent, as laid forth by the <a data-HoCid=\"170686\" href=\"/politicians/joe-oliver/\" title=\"Joe Oliver\">Minister of Natural Resources</a> mostly in speaking to industry and in response to questions that we raise in the House.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2810197\" data-originallang=\"en\">It has now been revealed by the government of the day that it intends to reduce down federal assessment of major projects to just three agencies. While previously agencies such as aboriginal affairs had been invisible in reviews of major projects, including resource projects in Alberta, it is now apparent that they will not be involved at all.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2810198\" data-originallang=\"en\">Who then in the federal government will actually stand up and speak for the rights of aboriginal peoples to have a voice in decisions which directly impact them, their lands, their waters and their future interests?</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"2810196\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, voil\u00e0 bien des g\u00e9n\u00e9ralit\u00e9s, mais il me manque toujours les d\u00e9tails. Le <a data-HoCid=\"170686\" href=\"/politicians/joe-oliver/\" title=\"Joe Oliver\">ministre des Ressources naturelles</a> en expose de plus en plus, surtout dans ses allocutions \u00e0 l'industrie et dans ses r\u00e9ponses aux questions que nous posons \u00e0 la Chambre. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2810197\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le gouvernement nous a appris qu'il a l'intention de restreindre \u00e0 seulement trois organismes les \u00e9valuations des grands projets. Par le pass\u00e9, dans l'examen des grands projets, y compris les projets li\u00e9s aux ressources naturelles en Alberta, on ne mentionnait pas les organismes s'occupant des affaires autochtones, mais il est maintenant clair que ceux-ci seront tenus \u00e0 l'\u00e9cart.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2810198\" data-originallang=\"en\">Qui, au gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral, d\u00e9fendra les droits des Autochtones, afin qu'ils aient leur mot \u00e0 dire dans les d\u00e9cisions qui touchent directement leur vie, leurs terres, leurs cours d'eau et leurs int\u00e9r\u00eats futurs?</p>"
