"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4665806\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, time allocation is the only tool that exists for a government to advance legislation when a stalemate exists. We have a duty to move forward all legislation, including important financial legislation, to make sure we move forward on the agenda that we have for Canadians.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4665807\" data-originallang=\"en\">I would like to just respond to some numbers. Including today, we have had eight days of debate on Bill <a data-HoCid=\"8471390\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-26/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Canada Pension Plan, the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board Act and the Income Tax Act\">C-26</a> at second reading. On Bill C-26, this has allowed nearly 70 members of Parliament, including nearly 40 Conservatives, to participate in debate so far. This represents nearly one half of the Conservative caucus.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4665808\" data-originallang=\"en\">Our government is committed to helping Canadians to achieve their goal of a safe, secure, and dignified retirement. We know that Bill <a data-HoCid=\"8471390\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-26/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Canada Pension Plan, the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board Act and the Income Tax Act\">C-26</a> would move forward that agenda in a way that would make a difference for all Canadians across this country. We are moving forward in a way that allows us to do what we know is right for Canadians.</p>",

Nous avons le devoir de faire avancer toutes les mesures l\u00e9gislatives, y compris les projets de loi financiers importants, afin de mettre en oeuvre notre programme pour les Canadiens.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4665807\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je r\u00e9pondrai \u00e0 la d\u00e9put\u00e9e en citant moi aussi quelques chiffres. En comptant la journ\u00e9e d'aujourd'hui, nous avons eu huit jours de d\u00e9bat sur le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"8471390\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-26/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Canada Pension Plan, the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board Act and the Income Tax Act\">C-26</a> \u00e0 l'\u00e9tape de la deuxi\u00e8me lecture. En tout, presque 70 d\u00e9put\u00e9s, y compris pr\u00e8s de 40 conservateurs, ont particip\u00e9 au d\u00e9bat sur cette mesure l\u00e9gislative jusqu'\u00e0 pr\u00e9sent. Cela repr\u00e9sente presque la moiti\u00e9 du caucus conservateur.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4665808\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le gouvernement est d\u00e9termin\u00e9 \u00e0 aider les Canadiens \u00e0 jouir d'une retraite s\u00fbre, tranquille et digne. Nous savons que le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"8471390\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-26/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Canada Pension Plan, the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board Act and the Income Tax Act\">C-26</a> nous donnerait les moyens d'atteindre cet objectif d'une fa\u00e7on qui am\u00e9liorerait le sort de tous les Canadiens. Nous allons de l'avant d'une mani\u00e8re qui nous permet de faire ce qui s'impose pour eux.</p>"
