"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5242326\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, I listened closely to my colleague's speech. Some of the figures he quoted on contraband cigarettes in Ontario surprised me a little. They seem a bit high, to me. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5242327\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> However, I am happy to hear that he understands the government\u2019s message, that we want to keep cannabis out of the hands of young people. Tobacco and alcohol are more difficult to purchase because they are regulated. It is difficult for young people to purchase tobacco or alcohol, because they need to show ID. We want the same for cannabis.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5242328\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> My colleague also mentioned that there was too little education and prevention. I am happy to hear that he is concerned.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5242329\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> The legislation talks a lot about plain packaging, but what does my colleague propose to help decrease the rate of smoking among adults?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5242326\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, j'ai \u00e9cout\u00e9 avec attention le discours de mon coll\u00e8gue. Certains des chiffres qu'il nous a donn\u00e9s concernant la contrebande de cigarettes en Ontario m'ont un peu surprise. D'apr\u00e8s moi, il surestime les chiffres. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5242327\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Toutefois, je suis contente d'entendre qu'il a compris le message du gouvernement, c'est-\u00e0-dire que nous voulons nous assurer que le cannabis demeure hors de la port\u00e9e des jeunes. Le tabac et l'alcool sont plus difficiles \u00e0 acheter parce qu'ils sont r\u00e9glement\u00e9s. Il est difficile pour les jeunes d'en acheter, parce qu'ils doivent pr\u00e9senter une pi\u00e8ce d'identit\u00e9. Nous voulons que ce soit la m\u00eame chose pour le cannabis.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5242328\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mon coll\u00e8gue a aussi mentionn\u00e9 qu'il y avait un manque d'\u00e9ducation et de pr\u00e9vention. Je suis contente de savoir qu'il s'en pr\u00e9occupe.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5242329\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> On parle beaucoup du paquet neutre dans cette mesure l\u00e9gislative, mais que proposerait mon coll\u00e8gue pour diminuer le taux de tabagisme chez les adultes?</p>"
