        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4105068\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank my colleague for her presentation. I think this shows us the extent to which the Conservatives like to dream in Technicolor. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4105069\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> My colleague ended her speech by saying that the budget was really making things better for people living in New Brunswick. I would like to point out that a lot of people in New Brunswick who work in the oil patch in Alberta have lost their jobs. I do not see anything in the budget that will help them. In addition, I would like to point out that many of the workers in New Brunswick are seasonal workers and that the budget will be digging even more deeply into the employment insurance fund, for a total of $17 billion over five years. That will bring the amount that the government has taken out of the EI fund to more than $24 billion. This is coming close to the $50 billion that the Liberals took. Things are obviously going well. At the same time as they are taking money from New Brunswickers, the government is proposing measures that will benefit only the wealthiest 15% in Canada. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4105070\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> Is my colleague not ashamed to say that they are going to balance the budget and it will be a good thing for everybody? Basically, she is saying the opposite of what her own <a data-HoCid=\"204553\" href=\"/politicians/joe-oliver/\" title=\"Joe Oliver\">Minister of Finance</a> has said. He said that it would be our grandchildren who would be paying for this budget.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4105068\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je remercie ma coll\u00e8gue de sa pr\u00e9sentation. Je pense que cela nous montre \u00e0 quel point les conservateurs aiment r\u00eaver en couleur. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4105069\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Ma coll\u00e8gue a termin\u00e9 son discours en disant que le budget \u00e9tait vraiment avantageux pour les gens qui habitent au Nouveau-Brunswick. J'aimerais lui rappeler qu'un grand nombre de gens du Nouveau-Brunswick, qui travaillent dans l'industrie p\u00e9troli\u00e8re en Alberta, ont perdu leurs emplois. Je ne vois rien dans le budget qui peut leur aider. En outre, j'aimerais lui rappeler qu'une grande partie des travailleurs du Nouveau-Brunswick sont des travailleurs saisonniers et que le budget va gruger encore une fois la caisse d'assurance-emploi pour un total de 17 milliards de dollars en cinq ans. Cela va porter le montant total que le gouvernement a pig\u00e9 dans la caisse \u00e0 plus de 24 milliards de dollars. Ce montant se rapproche de celui des lib\u00e9raux qui y ont pig\u00e9 50 milliards de dollars. De toute \u00e9vidence, cela va bon train. Tout en pigeant dans la richesse des N\u00e9o-Brunswickois, le gouvernement est en train de proposer des mesures qui privil\u00e9gieront seulement les 15 % les plus riches au Canada. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4105070\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Quand ma coll\u00e8gue dit qu'ils vont \u00e9quilibrer le budget et que ce sera avantageux pour tous, n'a-t-elle pas honte? Au bout du compte, elle est en train de dire le contraire de ce qu'a dit son propre <a data-HoCid=\"204553\" href=\"/politicians/joe-oliver/\" title=\"Joe Oliver\">ministre des Finances</a>. Ce dernier disait que ce serait nos petits-enfants qui allaient payer le prix du budget devant nous.</p>"
