        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4058001\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I listened with great interest to my hon. colleague. There are so many people working on making safer streets, dealing with recidivism, making sure that we actually get people out of the drug trade and making sure that people do not get involved in drugs. Then we have the Conservative government. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4058002\" data-originallang=\"en\">This is a perfect Conservative bill. It meets the three criteria: one, it has a ridiculous title that means nothing; two, it will not change anything because what it is claiming to do is already within the Parole Board; and three, the big kicker, the Conservatives have already wasted $122 million and have not changed anything. They are going to stand again and bang their heads against a brick wall that they created in their prison attitudes without ever bringing forward in the House one coherent, reasonable response that would actually cut down the drug trade and bring down the rates of recidivism.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4058003\" data-originallang=\"en\">With the member's experience in Surrey and what he knows in dealing with drug issues through his portfolio in the House, why does my colleague think the government continues to present such tired, out-of-touch ideas? Maybe it is time that Canadians finally did throw those guys out.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4058001\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, j'ai \u00e9cout\u00e9 mon coll\u00e8gue avec grand int\u00e9r\u00eat. Il y a, d'une part, les nombreuses personnes qui travaillent \u00e0 rendre les rues plus s\u00fbres, \u00e0 contrer la r\u00e9cidive, \u00e0 amener ceux qui oeuvrent dans le trafic de la drogue \u00e0 en sortir et \u00e0 \u00e9viter \u00e0 d'autres d'y entrer. Et il y a, d'autre part, le gouvernement conservateur.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4058002\" data-originallang=\"en\">Voil\u00e0 un projet de loi supr\u00eamement conservateur. Il r\u00e9pond aux trois crit\u00e8res: premi\u00e8rement, il a un titre ridicule, qui ne veut rien dire; deuxi\u00e8mement, il ne changera rien, car la Commission des lib\u00e9rations conditionnelles pratique d\u00e9j\u00e0 ce qu'il pr\u00e9tend instaurer; et troisi\u00e8mement, pour couronner le tout, les conservateurs ont d\u00e9j\u00e0 gaspill\u00e9 122 millions de dollars sans rien changer. Ils vont encore se heurter \u00e0 un mur de briques qu'ils ont eux-m\u00eames \u00e9rig\u00e9 par leur attitude face au probl\u00e8me dans les prisons sans jamais pr\u00e9senter \u00e0 la Chambre une mesure coh\u00e9rente et raisonnable qui r\u00e9duirait r\u00e9ellement le trafic de drogue et le taux de r\u00e9cidive.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4058003\" data-originallang=\"en\">\u00c0 la lumi\u00e8re de son exp\u00e9rience \u00e0 Surrey et de ce qu'il sait des questions de drogue gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 ses fonctions \u00e0 la Chambre, le d\u00e9put\u00e9 nous dirait-il pourquoi, selon lui, le gouvernement continue de pr\u00e9senter des id\u00e9es aussi d\u00e9pass\u00e9es et d\u00e9connect\u00e9es de la r\u00e9alit\u00e9? Il est peut-\u00eatre temps que les Canadiens mettent ces gens \u00e0 la porte.</p>"
