One only needs to understand and appreciate basic math. Basic math says that the Conservatives did nothing with regard to science in 10 years. In fact, when it came down to the pipeline issue, they got zero inches built to tidewaters. That is just basic math. Forget about the science.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4971430\" data-originallang=\"en\">Could the member opposite provide some sort of an explanation as to why the Conservative Party ignored the issue of science for many years? That was best illustrated when Harper got rid of the mandatory census form?</p>",

Il suffit toutefois de conna\u00eetre des math\u00e9matiques de base. Les calculs les plus \u00e9l\u00e9mentaires permettent de constater que, en 10 ans au pouvoir, les conservateurs n'ont rien fait en ce qui concerne les sciences. D'ailleurs, dans le dossier des pipelines, le gouvernement conservateur ne les a pas fait avancer d'un seul centim\u00e8tre vers les c\u00f4tes. Oublions la science: il ne s'agit que de calculs math\u00e9matiques de base.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4971430\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 d'en face pourrait-il expliquer pourquoi le gouvernement conservateur a ignor\u00e9 la question des sciences pendant toutes ces ann\u00e9es, comme l'abandon du formulaire obligatoire de recensement par Harper l'a si bien \u00e9t\u00e9 illustr\u00e9?</p>"
