It is not only with respect to a select few, it is even with respect to some of the politicians, some of the police, some of the business people.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3757706\" data-originallang=\"en\">Why is it that we are actually debating an issue that should be so clear to all of us. We should not be doing free trade agreements with countries such as this one.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3757707\" data-originallang=\"en\">Could the member explain her concern with respect to our export performance under the Conservative government's rule?</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3757704\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je suis tout \u00e0 fait d'accord avec ma coll\u00e8gue sur le fait que le gouvernement actuel ne se soucie pas du bien-\u00eatre des habitants des autres pays.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3757705\" data-originallang=\"en\">Voyons les types d'accords de libre-\u00e9change que le gouvernement tente de mettre en place dans un pays qui a l'un des pires bilans du monde en mati\u00e8re de droits de la personne, de corruption et de transparence. On ne parle pas seulement d'une \u00e9lite quelconque, mais aussi de politiciens, de la police et de certaines gens d'affaires.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3757706\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pourquoi donc discutons-nous d'une question qui devrait \u00eatre une \u00e9vidence pour nous tous? Nous ne devrions pas conclure d'accord de libre-\u00e9change avec des pays comme celui-l\u00e0.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3757707\" data-originallang=\"en\">La d\u00e9put\u00e9e pourrait-elle expliquer ce qui la pr\u00e9occupe au sujet de nos r\u00e9sultats d'exportations sous le gouvernement conservateur?</p>"
