"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"3180900\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, if there were a recurring theme in that intervention, it was spend, spend, spend. The NDP members stand often and speak about spending, and they have a big chequebook over there. I think they have found the magical mystical money tree because there is money for everything. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3180901\" data-originallang=\"en\">I am not aware of any budget suggestions that the NDP has sent to the <a data-HoCid=\"78777\" href=\"/politicians/jim-flaherty/\" title=\"Jim Flaherty\">Minister of Finance</a>. We have expanded the amount of money we are spending on the RCMP and come forward with a number of very comprehensive measures aimed at safe streets and communities, but how much more money should we give to the RCMP? What is the dollar figure that the NDP feels the RCMP is being shortchanged? I am not aware that it is being shortchanged.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3180902\" data-originallang=\"en\"> When we present a budget and ask the NDP members to seek efficiencies and work as efficiently as they can given their responsibilities, that is a responsible way to operate government. I would like to hear how much more money the member feels the RCMP should get.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3180900\" data-originallang=\"en\">Un th\u00e8me r\u00e9current se d\u00e9gage de cette intervention, monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident: d\u00e9penser, d\u00e9penser, d\u00e9penser. Les d\u00e9put\u00e9s n\u00e9o-d\u00e9mocrates prennent souvent la parole afin de proposer des d\u00e9penses et ils ont un gros ch\u00e9quier. Ils ont d\u00fb d\u00e9couvrir comment faire pousser l'argent dans les arbres parce qu'ils semblent en avoir pour tout.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3180901\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'ignore si le NPD a formul\u00e9 des suggestions au <a data-HoCid=\"78777\" href=\"/politicians/jim-flaherty/\" title=\"Jim Flaherty\">ministre des Finances</a> pour le budget. Nous avons augment\u00e9 l'enveloppe de la GRC et nous avons propos\u00e9 un train de mesures exhaustives afin de rendre les rues et les collectivit\u00e9s s\u00fbres, mais combien d'argent faudrait-il encore donner \u00e0 la GRC? De quelle somme est-elle l\u00e9s\u00e9e, selon le NPD? J'ignorais que la GRC fut l\u00e9s\u00e9e.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3180902\" data-originallang=\"en\">Lorsque nous pr\u00e9sentons un budget et que nous demandons aux d\u00e9put\u00e9s n\u00e9o-d\u00e9mocrates de chercher \u00e0 l'optimiser en travaillant avec un maximum d'efficacit\u00e9 compte tenu de leurs responsabilit\u00e9s, c'est de la saine gestion gouvernementale. J'aimerais donc savoir combien, de l'avis du d\u00e9put\u00e9, devrait recevoir la GRC.</p>"
