"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"3630660\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, for months the Conservatives have refused to hear any demands from the provinces on expanding the Canada pension plan, saying it would cost us tens of thousands of jobs. The thing is, Finance Canada's own report on the CPP says:</p>\n<blockquote><p data-HoCid=\"3630661\" data-originallang=\"en\">In the long run, expanding the CPP would bring economic benefits. Higher savings will lead to higher incomes in the future and higher consumption possibilities for seniors\u201d</p>\n</blockquote><p data-HoCid=\"3630662\" data-originallang=\"en\">Why did the Conservatives mislead Canadians about the positive impacts of expanding the CPP?</p>",

En fait, un rapport de Finances Canada sur le RPC indique ceci:</p>\n<blockquote><p data-HoCid=\"3630661\" data-originallang=\"en\"> \u00c0 long terme, la bonification du RPC apportera des retomb\u00e9es \u00e9conomiques.
