"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4956040\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I have the pleasure of serving on the transport committee with the hon. member, and by my recollection, if there was inadequate time to question officials, she might want to look back at the number of times the Conservatives filibustered while we had witnesses waiting to testify, and who were sent back without having a chance to do so. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4956041\" data-originallang=\"en\">If they have not had time to debate a number of other spending measures, they may want to look back to the whole week it took them to deal with the issues of two people who had trouble getting to the Hill on time because their bus was held up. There have been many other things. If we look at their opposition day motions, and some of the things they have put forward, perhaps they would like to have some of that time back to do some real substantive work in the House instead of pursuing jump-the-shark type projects. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4956042\" data-originallang=\"en\">I ask the member, if she could have some of that time back, what would she prioritize?</p>",

Elle se plaint du fait que ses coll\u00e8gues et elle n'ont pas eu suffisamment de temps pour questionner les fonctionnaires. Elle devrait peut-\u00eatre songer au nombre de fois que les conservateurs ont fait de l'obstruction, alors que des t\u00e9moins attendaient vainement de compara\u00eetre. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4956041\" data-originallang=\"en\">Si les d\u00e9put\u00e9s de l'opposition estiment ne pas disposer de suffisamment de temps pour d\u00e9battre de certaines autres mesures de d\u00e9penses, ils devraient r\u00e9fl\u00e9chir \u00e0 la semaine enti\u00e8re qu'ils ont gaspill\u00e9e pour discuter de deux personnes ayant eu de la difficult\u00e9 \u00e0 arriver sur la Colline \u00e0 temps parce que leur autobus \u00e9tait retenu. Il y a eu beaucoup d'autres incidents du genre. Nous n'avons qu'\u00e0 penser aux motions de l'opposition et \u00e0 d'autres initiatives qu'ils ont pr\u00e9sent\u00e9es. Les d\u00e9put\u00e9s aimeraient peut-\u00eatre r\u00e9cup\u00e9rer une partie du temps perdu afin de faire du travail vraiment important \u00e0 la Chambre plut\u00f4t que de perdre leur temps sur des projets ne menant nulle part.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4956042\" data-originallang=\"en\">Si la d\u00e9put\u00e9e pouvait r\u00e9cup\u00e9rer une partie de ce temps, de quoi s'occuperait-elle en priorit\u00e9?</p>"
