"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"3935158\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, this weekend it was confirmed that a fifth farm in the Fraser Valley has been infected by the highly pathogenic H5N2 strain of avian flu. This outbreak has the potential to devastate Canadian poultry farmers, but years of neglect and Conservative budget cuts have reduced the Canadian Food Inspection Agency to a skeleton staff. It has lost 300 employees, and 54 positions in animal health have been left unfilled.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3935159\" data-originallang=\"en\">My question is, what is the government's containment plan?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3935158\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, on nous a confirm\u00e9 en fin de semaine qu'une cinqui\u00e8me ferme de la vall\u00e9e du Fraser \u00e9tait contamin\u00e9e par une souche particuli\u00e8rement pathog\u00e8ne de la grippe aviaire, \u00e0 savoir la H5N2. Cette \u00e9closion pourrait s'av\u00e9rer d\u00e9vastatrice pour les aviculteurs canadiens, d'autant qu'apr\u00e8s des ann\u00e9es de n\u00e9gligence et de compressions budg\u00e9taires conservatrices, les effectifs de l'Agence canadienne d'inspection des aliments sont r\u00e9duits \u00e0 leur strict minimum. Cette derni\u00e8re a en effet d\u00fb laisser partir 300 employ\u00e9s, et 54 postes dans le secteur de la sant\u00e9 animale attendent toujours d'\u00eatre pourvus.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3935159\" data-originallang=\"en\">Voici ma question: qu'entend faire le gouvernement pour endiguer cette crise?</p>"
