        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4158749\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, sincerity in politics is sometimes considerably abused.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4158750\" data-originallang=\"en\">In the case of Bill <a data-HoCid=\"6842344\" href=\"/bills/41-2/C-51/\" title=\"An Act to enact the Security of Canada Information Sharing Act and the Secure Air Travel Act, to amend the Criminal Code, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service Act and the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act and to make related and consequential amendments to other Acts\">C-51</a>, the Liberals were concerned that by not supporting the bill, they might somehow be tainted in the view of some important constituencies out there, so they decided to support it. I think that is what is going on in this case as well. If the Liberals say they do not like what is in the bill, if they say they think the bill is inadequate and they do not see that it is going to provide the proper results, then, by golly, they should stand up and vote against it. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4158751\" data-originallang=\"en\">We are not here to make bad legislation. We are not here to put laws on the books simply to have laws on the books. We are here to do things for society that work. That is very important. That is why the New Democratic Party is trusted by Canadian families. It is because they know we want to do things that actually work for them.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4158749\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, en politique, la sinc\u00e9rit\u00e9 fait parfois cruellement d\u00e9faut. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4158750\" data-originallang=\"en\">Dans le cas du projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"6842344\" href=\"/bills/41-2/C-51/\" title=\"An Act to enact the Security of Canada Information Sharing Act and the Secure Air Travel Act, to amend the Criminal Code, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service Act and the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act and to make related and consequential amendments to other Acts\">C-51</a>, les lib\u00e9raux craignaient que, en n'appuyant pas le projet de loi, ils seraient mal vus dans certaines circonscriptions. Ils ont donc d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de l'appuyer. Je pense que c'est la m\u00eame chose dans ce cas-ci. Si les lib\u00e9raux n'aiment pas les dispositions du projet de loi, pensent que le projet de loi est inad\u00e9quat et qu'il ne permettra pas d'atteindre les objectifs vis\u00e9s, alors, bon sang, ils devraient mettre leurs culottes et voter contre. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4158751\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous ne sommes pas ici pour adopter de mauvaises mesures l\u00e9gislatives. Nous ne sommes pas ici pour adopter des mesures l\u00e9gislatives \u00e0 tort et \u00e0 travers. Nous sommes ici pour adopter des mesures qui vont donner des r\u00e9sultats pour la soci\u00e9t\u00e9. C'est tr\u00e8s important. Voil\u00e0 pourquoi les familles canadiennes font confiance au Nouveau Parti d\u00e9mocratique. C'est parce qu'elles savent que nous voulons adopter des mesures qui les aident.</p>"
