"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"2956010\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, last year, on this very date, the Conservative government was so caught up in violating postal workers' rights that it did not think the House should adjourn for a single day to enable Quebec members of Parliament to celebrate the national holiday in their ridings.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2956011\" data-originallang=\"fr\">What a lack of respect from a party that brags about recognizing the Quebec nation, but Quebeckers are not fooled. All year long they have seen the Conservatives refuse to listen to Quebec's legitimate requests, in particular regarding the firearms registry and young offenders.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2956012\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The NDP succeeded where the Liberal Party and the Conservative Party failed miserably. Our party achieved the greatest national reconciliation in Canada by obtaining and maintaining massive support from Quebeckers.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2956013\" data-originallang=\"fr\">As the national holiday is just a few days away, I want to reiterate the commitment we have made to work tirelessly to maintain the trust that Quebec has given us.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2956014\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I want to wish all Quebeckers a happy national holiday.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"2956010\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, l'an dernier, \u00e0 pareille date, le gouvernement conservateur \u00e9tait tellement pr\u00e9occup\u00e9 \u00e0 bafouer les droits des travailleurs des postes qu'il n'avait pas cru bon ajourner la Chambre une seule journ\u00e9e pour permettre aux d\u00e9put\u00e9s qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois d'aller f\u00eater la f\u00eate nationale dans leur comt\u00e9.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2956011\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Quel manque de respect pour un parti qui se targue de reconna\u00eetre la nation qu\u00e9b\u00e9coise! Mais les Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois ne sont pas dupes. Toute l'ann\u00e9e, ils ont vu les conservateurs refuser de prendre acte des demandes l\u00e9gitimes du Qu\u00e9bec, notamment dans le dossier du registre des armes \u00e0 feu et dans celui des jeunes contrevenants.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2956012\" data-originallang=\"fr\">De son c\u00f4t\u00e9, le NPD a r\u00e9ussi l\u00e0 o\u00f9 le Parti lib\u00e9ral et le Parti conservateur ont lamentablement \u00e9chou\u00e9. Il a r\u00e9alis\u00e9 la plus grande r\u00e9conciliation nationale du Canada en obtenant et en maintenant l'appui massif des Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois et Qu\u00e9b\u00e9coises.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2956013\" data-originallang=\"fr\">\u00c0 quelques jours de la f\u00eate nationale, je veux r\u00e9it\u00e9rer l'engagement que nous avons pris de travailler sans rel\u00e2che pour maintenir la confiance que le Qu\u00e9bec nous a donn\u00e9e.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2956014\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Bonne f\u00eate nationale, Qu\u00e9bec!</p>"
