"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"3567479\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, the Neufeld report to Elections Canada outlined procedural problems that the Elections Act calls \u201cirregularities\u201d. These are due to staff making mistakes on election day, like a small mistake in filling out a form when a voter is being vouched for. However, Neufeld never even came close to saying these irregularities constituted, led to, or represented a serious risk of fraud. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3567480\" data-originallang=\"en\">Why is the minister constantly misrepresenting these statistics?</p>",
