It would rather defend the indefensible than clean house. Taxes are for other people to pay, certainly not the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a>'s friends.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5106348\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Will the Canada Revenue Agency do its job and investigate Stephen Bronfman?</p>",

Chaque fois qu'on parle des paradis fiscaux et du Parti lib\u00e9ral, la <a data-HoCid=\"214329\" href=\"/politicians/diane-lebouthillier/\" title=\"Diane Lebouthillier\">ministre du Revenu national</a> nous sort la m\u00eame cassette.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5106347\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Quand on apprend que Jean Chr\u00e9tien, Paul Martin et Stephen Bronfman, les plus grands t\u00e9nors lib\u00e9raux, cachent des millions de dollars dans le Sud, on comprend pourquoi ce gouvernement refuse d'agir sur les paradis fiscaux. Il pr\u00e9f\u00e8re d\u00e9fendre l'ind\u00e9fendable que de faire le m\u00e9nage. Les imp\u00f4ts, c'est pour les autres, surtout pas pour les amis du <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a>!</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5106348\" data-originallang=\"fr\">L'Agence du revenu du Canada va-t-elle faire son travail et enqu\u00eater sur Stephen Bronfman?</p>"
