"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"3965143\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I will take advantage of the fact that the member is the minister responsible for western diversification. There has been a great deal of concern over the last little while that the government's focus seems to be just on oil and the price of oil. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3965144\" data-originallang=\"en\">The resolution being proposed talks about having balance in the economy. The minister plays a very important role in western Canada. I would think that the minister would recognize the value of infrastructure dollars that would assist manufacturing companies and small businesses in getting their products to market and in being able to invest. Quite often, in certain areas of the province, one needs to spend infrastructure dollars.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3965145\" data-originallang=\"en\">Why does the member believe that the government has chosen to decrease infrastructure dollars from the one-time spending of $2 billion to $120 million?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3965143\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, j'aimerais profiter du fait que la d\u00e9put\u00e9e est aussi la ministre de la Diversification de l'\u00e9conomie de l'Ouest pour parler d'une question qui pr\u00e9occupe beaucoup de personnes: il semble que, derni\u00e8rement, le gouvernement se concentre uniquement sur le p\u00e9trole et sur le prix de celui-ci.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3965144\" data-originallang=\"en\">La motion propos\u00e9e vise \u00e0 b\u00e2tir une \u00e9conomie \u00e9quilibr\u00e9e. La ministre joue un r\u00f4le tr\u00e8s important dans l'Ouest du Canada. J'aurais aim\u00e9 que la ministre reconnaisse que les investissements dans l'infrastructure aident les entreprises manufacturi\u00e8res et les petites entreprises \u00e0 mettre leurs produits en march\u00e9 et \u00e0 avoir les moyens de faire des investissements \u00e0 leur tour. Il arrive souvent, dans certains coins de la province, qu'il soit n\u00e9cessaire d'investir dans l'infrastructure. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3965145\" data-originallang=\"en\">Selon la d\u00e9put\u00e9e, pourquoi le gouvernement a-t-il choisi de r\u00e9duire les investissements en infrastructure en les faisant passer de 2 milliards \u00e0 120 millions de dollars?</p>"
