"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4180248\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, the parliamentary budget officer is reporting that Canadian households actually carry the highest debt load in the G7. He says this is of concern because it actually creates a situation where Canadians are more vulnerable to economic shocks, like losing their jobs. This applies to Canadian households. It also applies to our country.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4180249\" data-originallang=\"en\">Who is going to max out our country's credit cards on a spending spree? It is going to be the finance minister. Why is the government abandoning any fiscal sense in the form of common sense?</p>",

Il dit qu'il y a de quoi \u00eatre inquiet, car cela rend les Canadiens plus vuln\u00e9rables aux mauvaises nouvelles \u00e9conomiques \u2014 en cas de perte d'emploi, par exemple. Ce commentaire s'applique aux m\u00e9nages canadiens, mais aussi \u00e0 notre pays.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4180249\" data-originallang=\"en\">Qui va utiliser au maximum les cartes de cr\u00e9dit du pays pour de folles d\u00e9penses? Le ministre des Finances. Pourquoi le gouvernement laisse-t-il tomber tout bon sens en mati\u00e8re de finances?</p>"
