"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4094719\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, doubling the TFSA limit to $10,000 gives another expensive tax break to the rich. The middle class will pay for the tax break and when the program becomes completely unaffordable, the <a data-HoCid=\"204553\" href=\"/politicians/joe-oliver/\" title=\"Joe Oliver\">Minister of Finance</a> says our future grandchildren can figure it out.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4094720\" data-originallang=\"en\">Only 7% of Canadians could contribute the TFSA limit in 2013 and the number has gotten smaller each year. Why would the Conservative government increase the TFSA limit at a cost of billions of dollars in the years ahead instead of trying to help the middle class and those working so hard to join it?</p>",

C'est la classe moyenne qui en fera les frais, et lorsque le co\u00fbt de ce programme sera compl\u00e8tement exorbitant, il reviendra alors \u00e0 nos petits-enfants, selon le <a data-HoCid=\"204553\" href=\"/politicians/joe-oliver/\" title=\"Joe Oliver\">ministre des Finances</a>, de trouver une solution. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4094720\" data-originallang=\"en\">\u00c0 peine 7 % des Canadiens ont atteint le plafond des CELI en 2013, et ce nombre d\u00e9cro\u00eet d'ann\u00e9e en ann\u00e9e.
