"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4356841\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the member on bringing this bill forward. As much as I have not had a chance to read the bill in great detail, certainly the intent of the bill and the direction we see is very positive.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4356842\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Why is the bill being put forward today despite other legislation being on notice? This is an issue where there seems to be a substantial degree of consensus and it would have been nice to have moved forward with proper notice in a collaborative way. Instead, after indicating that the government would move a different bill, today we have closure on one bill, report stage on another, and now it is pushing this one forward. Why not move this bill forward in the collegial co-operative manner that something this important deserves?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4356841\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je f\u00e9licite la d\u00e9put\u00e9e d'avoir pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 ce projet de loi. Je n'ai pas encore eu le temps de tout le lire, mais je constate d\u00e9j\u00e0 qu'il part d'une bonne intention et que son objet est tout \u00e0 fait louable.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4356842\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pourquoi est-il pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 aujourd'hui, cependant, alors que d'autres mesures l\u00e9gislatives sont encore inscrites au <em>Feuilleton</em>? Le sujet dont il traite semble faire \u00e0 peu pr\u00e8s consensus; j'aurais donc vu d'un bon oeil qu'il soit pr\u00e9c\u00e9d\u00e9 des avis appropri\u00e9s et que sa pr\u00e9sentation se fasse dans un esprit de collaboration. Au contraire, apr\u00e8s avoir annonc\u00e9 un projet de loi diff\u00e9rent, le gouvernement nous arrive plut\u00f4t aujourd'hui avec une motion d'attribution de temps, une motion tendant \u00e0 l'adoption d'un autre projet de loi \u00e0 l'\u00e9tape du rapport, puis cette mesure l\u00e9gislative-ci. Pourquoi une mesure aussi importante que celle-l\u00e0 n'est-elle pas pr\u00e9sent\u00e9e dans l'esprit de collaboration et de coll\u00e9gialit\u00e9 qu'elle m\u00e9rite?</p>"
