"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4556153\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, the fentanyl crisis is getting worse, and the Liberals are ignoring the obvious. China is the primary source of illicit fentanyl in Canada. The Liberals would rather deal with deadly street drugs after they are in the hands of Canadians, instead of targeting the source. This morning, we attempted to have the Chinese ambassador appear before committee to explain what his government is doing to help Canada tackle this deadly drug epidemic. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4556154\" data-originallang=\"en\">Why is pleasing the Chinese government more important to the Liberals than saving the lives of Canadians?</p>",

La Chine est la principale source de fentanyl ill\u00e9gal au Canada. Les lib\u00e9raux pr\u00e9f\u00e8rent s'occuper des drogues dangereuses une fois qu'elles sont dans la rue et entre les mains des Canadiens plut\u00f4t que de s'attaquer \u00e0 la source. Ce matin, nous avons tent\u00e9 de faire t\u00e9moigner l'ambassadeur de Chine devant le comit\u00e9 afin qu'il puisse expliquer ce que fait son gouvernement pour aider le Canada \u00e0 lutter contre cette \u00e9pid\u00e9mie de drogue. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4556154\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pourquoi les lib\u00e9raux accordent-ils plus d'importance au fait de plaire au gouvernement chinois plut\u00f4t qu'au fait de sauver la vie de Canadiens?</p>"
