        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5677867\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, my colleague is exactly right. The Liberals are not taking responsibility for the consequences of their actions.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5677868\" data-originallang=\"en\">The member hit on a very important point. We are talking about the crisis that small businesses are facing, but this is yet another cut in what has been death by a thousand cuts under the Liberal government. We talked about the carbon tax, CPP, EI tax increases on employers, and now a Canada Post work stoppage that the government again refuses to take any definitive action on.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5677869\" data-originallang=\"en\">Our small businesses across Canada feel like they are being kicked in the gut over and over again by a Liberal government. Let us be clear, there is a reason for that. During the campaign in 2015, the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> was very clear that small business owners are just tax cheats looking for ways to hide from taxes.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5677870\" data-originallang=\"en\">That is not who small business owners are. They are the backbone and the foundation of just about every community in this country. It is high time the Liberals started treating them that way.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5677867\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, mon coll\u00e8gue a tout \u00e0 fait raison. Les lib\u00e9raux n\u2019assument pas les cons\u00e9quences de leurs actes.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5677868\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 soul\u00e8ve un \u00e9l\u00e9ment tr\u00e8s important. Nous parlons de la crise \u00e0 laquelle les petites entreprises sont confront\u00e9es, mais le gouvernement lib\u00e9ral contribue encore aujourd'hui \u00e0 leur mort \u00e0 petit feu. Nous avons parl\u00e9 de la taxe sur le carbone, du R\u00e9gime de pensions du Canada, de la hausse des cotisations patronales \u00e0 l\u2019assurance-emploi, et maintenant de l\u2019arr\u00eat de travail \u00e0 Postes Canada, que le gouvernement refuse encore de r\u00e9gler de mani\u00e8re radicale.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5677869\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Dans tout le Canada, les petites entreprises ont l\u2019impression d\u2019essuyer coup apr\u00e8s coup de la part du gouvernement lib\u00e9ral. Soyons clairs, il y a une raison \u00e0 cela. Pendant la campagne de 2015, le <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a> a dit tr\u00e8s clairement que les propri\u00e9taires de petite entreprise ne sont que des fraudeurs qui cherchent des moyens de dissimuler des revenus imposables.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5677870\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Les propri\u00e9taires de petite entreprise ne sont pas des fraudeurs. Ils sont les piliers et le moteur de presque toutes les collectivit\u00e9s du pays. Il est grand temps que les lib\u00e9raux commencent \u00e0 le traiter comme tels.</p>"
