"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5066683\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, that was not the question.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5066684\" data-originallang=\"en\">In October last year, the <a data-HoCid=\"214320\" href=\"/politicians/bill-morneau/\" title=\"Bill Morneau\">finance minister</a> himself introduced Bill <a data-HoCid=\"8502232\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-27/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Pension Benefits Standards Act, 1985\">C-27</a>, which would set up the same target benefit plans that he previously called for as executive chair of Morneau Shepell. The minister's family company called the bill a \u201cpositive step\u201d and not surprisingly, welcomed its introduction. The fact is the finance minister's billion dollar family company will benefit directly from Bill C-27.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5066685\" data-originallang=\"en\">So again, specifically and clearly: why did the <a data-HoCid=\"214320\" href=\"/politicians/bill-morneau/\" title=\"Bill Morneau\">finance minister</a> not recuse himself from discussions about Bill <a data-HoCid=\"8502232\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-27/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Pension Benefits Standards Act, 1985\">C-27</a>?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5066683\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, cela ne r\u00e9pond pas \u00e0 ma question.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5066684\" data-originallang=\"en\">En octobre dernier, le <a data-HoCid=\"214320\" href=\"/politicians/bill-morneau/\" title=\"Bill Morneau\">ministre des Finances</a> a pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"8502232\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-27/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Pension Benefits Standards Act, 1985\">C-27</a>, qui vise \u00e0 fournir un cadre pour la cr\u00e9ation de r\u00e9gimes \u00e0 prestations cibles, ces m\u00eames r\u00e9gimes qu'il demandait \u00e0 l'\u00e9poque o\u00f9 il \u00e9tait pr\u00e9sident ex\u00e9cutif de Morneau Shepell. Comme on pouvait s'y attendre, l'entreprise familiale du ministre a accueilli favorablement le projet de loi, le d\u00e9crivant comme un pas dans la bonne direction. En effet, le projet de loi C-27 profitera directement \u00e0 l'entreprise familiale du ministre, une entreprise milliardaire.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5066685\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je reviens donc \u00e0 ma question, qui est claire et pr\u00e9cise: pourquoi le <a data-HoCid=\"214320\" href=\"/politicians/bill-morneau/\" title=\"Bill Morneau\">ministre des Finances</a> ne s'est-il pas retir\u00e9 des discussions sur le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"8502232\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-27/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Pension Benefits Standards Act, 1985\">C-27</a>?</p>"
