"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4395363\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, of course I do not disagree with a single thing that the parliamentary secretary said about the last 10 years. In fact, I would go further and say that in 2005, the previous government of the Right Hon. Paul Martin had in place a plan that would have taken us very close to Kyoto targets, which was immediately cancelled by the previous Prime Minister when he took office.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4395364\" data-originallang=\"en\">That is still not good enough. It will not be enough for the new Liberal government to be much, much better than the previous government. We actually have to do what is necessary, and what is necessary to avoid 1.5\u00b0C means not just drilling down domestically into how we almost meet or meet the targets of the previous government. By withdrawing our INDC and tabling a new one that is more robust, that is more ambitious, we can trigger other countries to do the same. Otherwise we will lock in global average temperature increases way past the danger zone.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4395363\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, \u00e9videmment, je suis en accord avec absolument tout ce qu'a dit le secr\u00e9taire parlementaire au sujet des 10 derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es. D'ailleurs, j'irais m\u00eame plus loin en disant qu'en 2005, l'ancien gouvernement de Paul Martin avait en place un plan qui nous aurait men\u00e9s tr\u00e8s pr\u00e8s des objectifs de Kyoto, sauf que le premier ministre suivant l'a annul\u00e9 d\u00e8s qu'il est entr\u00e9 en fonction.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4395364\" data-originallang=\"en\">Ce n'est toujours pas suffisant. Ce ne sera pas suffisant pour le nouveau gouvernement lib\u00e9ral de faire beaucoup, beaucoup mieux que le gouvernement pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent. Nous devons faire le n\u00e9cessaire, et ce qui est n\u00e9cessaire pour \u00e9viter une hausse de 1,5 \u00b0C ne consiste pas \u00e0 concentrer nos efforts au pays en nous contentant de respecter presque ou enti\u00e8rement les cibles fix\u00e9es par le gouvernement pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent. En retirant nos contributions pr\u00e9vues d\u00e9termin\u00e9es au niveau national, ou CPDN, et en en d\u00e9posant de nouvelles qui sont plus robustes et plus ambitieuses, nous pouvons amener d'autres pays \u00e0 faire de m\u00eame. Autrement, nous enregistrerons des hausses de temp\u00e9rature moyenne mondiale qui d\u00e9passent largement la zone de danger.</p>"
