"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5584816\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, two years ago the government announced a ban on asbestos via four different ministers. They know who they are, yet today one of those four ministers is announcing watered down regulations that fly in the face of science, and the science is crystal clear. There is no safe level of exposure to asbestos. Asbestos is the greatest industrial killer of all time, so why has the government chosen to leave Canadian workers and their families exposed to it?</p>",

Elles se reconna\u00eetront. Pourtant, aujourd'hui, l'une de ces quatre ministres annonce une version dilu\u00e9e du r\u00e8glement qui fait fi des donn\u00e9es scientifiques. La science ne laisse aucun doute: il n'y a pas de niveau s\u00e9curitaire d'exposition \u00e0 l'amiante. \u00c9tant donn\u00e9 que l'amiante est le produit industriel le plus meurtrier que le monde ait connu, pourquoi le gouvernement choisit-il de laisser les travailleurs canadiens et leur famille y \u00eatre expos\u00e9s?</p>"
