"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4556445\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, in fairness to the member, I will give the Harper government credit for the Honduras and Panama agreements. However, it is wrong for the Conservatives to believe that they actually completed something in regard to CETA, because it is not a done deal. This is something that our current minister is aggressively pursuing and is constantly being requested by countries abroad to cross the Atlantic to try to remedy the many different issues that are still outstanding. Therefore, to try to give Canadians the impression that this is a Conservative agreement is wrong. The member also made reference to 60% of trade around the world being done through the Harper government, which is just not true.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4556446\" data-originallang=\"en\"> However, not to fear, we understand that in order to get the job done we have to put all the players on the ice in order to score a goal. Under this government, we have a number of players who are quite keen to be on the ice to make sure that the puck gets into the net. We all hope, because it is in Canada's best interests, that we are able to accomplish something that the former Harper government was not able to.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4556445\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, pour \u00eatre juste envers le d\u00e9put\u00e9, je vais conc\u00e9der que c'est le gouvernement Harper qui a conclu les accords avec le Panama et le Honduras. Les conservateurs auraient cependant tort de croire qu\u2019ils ont vraiment r\u00e9alis\u00e9 quelque chose dans le cas de l\u2019Accord \u00e9conomique et commercial global, parce que ce n\u2019est pas encore une affaire conclue. La ministre actuelle y travaille \u00e9nergiquement et elle traverse r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement l\u2019Atlantique \u00e0 la demande de pays europ\u00e9ens pour aller y discuter des nombreux enjeux qui ne sont pas encore r\u00e9gl\u00e9s. Par cons\u00e9quent, il ne faudrait pas tenter de donner aux Canadiens l\u2019impression que cet accord est une r\u00e9alisation des conservateurs. Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a aussi dit que, gr\u00e2ce au gouvernement Harper, nous avions acc\u00e8s \u00e0 60 % du commerce mondial, mais c'est tout simplement faux.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4556446\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les Canadiens ne devraient toutefois pas s\u2019inqui\u00e9ter. Nous comprenons que, pour faire aboutir le processus et marquer un but, il faut avoir tous les joueurs sur la glace. Plusieurs joueurs, au sein du pr\u00e9sent gouvernement, font des pieds et des mains pour y parvenir. Puisque c'est dans l\u2019int\u00e9r\u00eat sup\u00e9rieur du Canada, nous esp\u00e9rons tous conclure cet accord que le gouvernement Harper n\u2019a pas r\u00e9ussi \u00e0 conclure.</p>"
