"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4094732\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, once again, this case is before the court. It would be inappropriate for me to comment.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4094733\" data-originallang=\"en\">As I just said, it is inappropriate to use House of Commons or taxpayers' resources for partisan political purposes. We know, for example, the member for <a data-HoCid=\"170169\" href=\"/politicians/pierre-dionne-labelle/\" title=\"Pierre Dionne Labelle\">Rivi\u00e8re-du-Nord</a> used over $25,000 destined for his riding. He in fact funnelled it to an illegal office in Montreal. He should pay that money back, do the right thing for himself and his constituents and pay the money he used against the rules of this House. </p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4094732\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, encore une fois, cette affaire est devant le tribunal. Il serait inappropri\u00e9 de faire un commentaire \u00e0 ce sujet.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4094733\" data-originallang=\"en\">Comme je viens tout juste de le dire, il est inappropri\u00e9 d'utiliser des ressources provenant de la Chambre des communes ou des contribuables \u00e0 des fins politiques partisanes. Par exemple, nous savons que le d\u00e9put\u00e9 de <a data-HoCid=\"170169\" href=\"/politicians/pierre-dionne-labelle/\" title=\"Pierre Dionne Labelle\">Rivi\u00e8re-du-Nord</a> a utilis\u00e9 plus de 25 000 $ qui \u00e9taient destin\u00e9s \u00e0 sa circonscription. En fait, il a utilis\u00e9 cet argent pour financer un bureau ill\u00e9gal \u00e0 Montr\u00e9al. Il devrait rembourser cette somme, prendre les mesures qui s'imposent pour lui et pour les \u00e9lecteurs de sa circonscription et rembourser l'argent qu'il a utilis\u00e9 \u00e0 des fins qui vont \u00e0 l'encontre du R\u00e8glement de la Chambre. </p>"
