We are working very hard to understand the challenges and opportunities in different provinces and territories, and we are going to come forward with a plan.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4466506\" data-originallang=\"en\">Let us be clear about the Harper target. The Harper government had absolutely no plan to reach the target. It did not care. It had a target out there, with no actions. That is not what we are going to do. We are going to come with concrete actions that are going to tackle our emissions and grow our economy in a thoughtful way.</p>",

Nous d\u00e9ployons de grands efforts pour mieux comprendre les difficult\u00e9s de chaque province et territoire et les possibilit\u00e9s qui s'offrent \u00e0 eux, puis nous pr\u00e9senterons un plan.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4466506\" data-originallang=\"en\">Qu'une chose soit claire \u00e0 propos de l'objectif du gouvernement Harper. Ce gouvernement n'avait pr\u00e9vu absolument aucune mesure pour atteindre son objectif. Il s'en fichait. Il avait fix\u00e9 un objectif comme cela, sans prendre de mesures pour l'atteindre. Ce n'est pas ce que nous ferons. Nous allons pr\u00e9senter, de fa\u00e7on r\u00e9fl\u00e9chie, des mesures concr\u00e8tes qui r\u00e9duiront nos \u00e9missions tout en stimulant notre \u00e9conomie.</p>"
