"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5187392\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I thank my hon. colleague for another speech getting directly to the point. I thank him specifically for pointing out that example of regional economic funding, which was aimed at northern Ontario but went to the minister of everything's riding in southern Ontario. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5187393\" data-originallang=\"en\">This is just another element or outcome of the government's decision to strip the regional development ministers across the country, which is proven by the more than $2 billion that was meant to go out the door in infrastructure spending that the government could not get out the door and has had to be profiled for later investment.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5187394\" data-originallang=\"en\">I know the speaking time is always limited, but I wonder if my colleague would like to amplify on some of those remarks that he made, criticizing the government for removing the regional ministers.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5187392\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je remercie mon coll\u00e8gue d'avoir prononc\u00e9 un autre discours allant droit au but. Je le remercie plus pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment d'avoir soulev\u00e9 l'exemple du financement \u00e9conomique r\u00e9gional, qui devait \u00eatre investi dans le Nord de l'Ontario, mais qui s'est retrouv\u00e9 dans la circonscription du ministre de tout dans le Sud de l'Ontario.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5187393\" data-originallang=\"en\">Ce n'est qu'un autre aspect, ou r\u00e9sultat, de la d\u00e9cision du gouvernement de supprimer les postes de ministres responsables du d\u00e9veloppement r\u00e9gional partout au pays. La preuve: les quelque 2 milliards de dollars qui devaient \u00eatre investis dans les infrastructures que le gouvernement n'a pas pu d\u00e9bloquer et qui devront \u00eatre r\u00e9investis plus tard.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5187394\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je sais que le temps de parole dont nous disposons est toujours limit\u00e9, mais je me demande si mon coll\u00e8gue pourrait nous en dire davantage sur les observations que j'ai faites contestant la d\u00e9cision du gouvernement d'abolir les postes de ministres r\u00e9gionaux.</p>"
