"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"3926237\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, any good Habs fan will tell you that is not true. Certainly we have done very well when it comes to dealing with the United States on a number of different levels.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3926238\" data-originallang=\"en\">I have a good working relationship with Secretary Tom Vilsack. I know the <a data-HoCid=\"170683\" href=\"/politicians/ed-fast/\" title=\"Ed Fast\">Minister of International Trade</a> has a good working relationship with Ambassador Froman.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3926239\" data-originallang=\"en\">Having said that, what the member for <a data-HoCid=\"170466\" href=\"/politicians/ralph-goodale/\" title=\"Ralph Goodale\">Wascana</a> is alluding to when it comes to the single-desk is absolutely wrong. He needs better research. He actually needs to get out of Regina at some point and talk to farmers, and if he would like, I could introduce him to some from Saskatchewan later today. They are here attending GrowCanada. They are thrilled with the changes that were made, and I am sure they would be happy to speak to the member for <a data-HoCid=\"170466\" href=\"/politicians/ralph-goodale/\" title=\"Ralph Goodale\">Wascana</a>.</p>",

Il doit approfondir ses recherches. Il devrait sortir de Regina pour aller parler aux agriculteurs. S'il le souhaite, je pourrais lui pr\u00e9senter quelques agriculteurs de la Saskatchewan plus tard aujourd'hui. Ils sont ici pour participer \u00e0 la conf\u00e9rence Cultiver le Canada. Ils sont enchant\u00e9s des changements qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 apport\u00e9s, et je suis s\u00fbr qu'ils seraient heureux de parler au d\u00e9put\u00e9 de <a data-HoCid=\"170466\" href=\"/politicians/ralph-goodale/\" title=\"Ralph Goodale\">Wascana</a>.</p>"
