When the hon. member was in a cabinet of the previous Conservative government, she would have loved economic results like that.</p>",

Lorsque la d\u00e9put\u00e9e faisait partie du Cabinet du gouvernement conservateur pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent, elle aurait ador\u00e9 ce genre de r\u00e9sultats \u00e9conomiques.</p>"
