        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5740039\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his work on this committee and on this piece of legislation. I would like to point out that the NDP and my colleagues across the way have been very supportive every step of the way when it comes to the passage of Bill <a data-HoCid=\"9808070\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-76/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Canada Elections Act and other Acts and to make certain consequential amendments\">C-76</a>. They were enthusiastic to see the voter identification card being placed back into this legislation. They were happy to see the so-called Fair Elections Act be reversed through this piece of legislation. I am grateful for all the hard work they have done in supporting this legislation.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5740040\" data-originallang=\"en\">I understand the worry of my colleague. All has not been lost. I know the minister and our government take foreign interference very seriously and will look into this issue. This bill has made steps toward that. No foreign actors would be allowed to participate financially in our elections and also for all those who are advertising on platforms such as Facebook or any other platforms, all would be made transparent. These are big steps toward transparency in our elections and also in deterring those foreign actors from\u2014</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5740039\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je remercie mon coll\u00e8gue de son travail au sein du comit\u00e9 et sur cette mesure l\u00e9gislative. J'aimerais souligner que le NPD et mes coll\u00e8gues d'en face ont donn\u00e9 leur appui tout au long du processus vers l'adoption du projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"9808070\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-76/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Canada Elections Act and other Acts and to make certain consequential amendments\">C-76</a>. Ils ont accueilli avec enthousiasme le r\u00e9tablissement de la carte d'identification de l'\u00e9lecteur comme pi\u00e8ce d'identit\u00e9. Ils ont applaudi le fait que le projet de loi abroge les dispositions de la pr\u00e9tendue Loi sur l'int\u00e9grit\u00e9 des \u00e9lections. Je les remercie de leur excellent travail \u00e0 l'appui de cette mesure l\u00e9gislative.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5740040\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je comprends l'inqui\u00e9tude de mon coll\u00e8gue. Cela dit, tout n'est pas perdu. Je sais que la ministre et le gouvernement prennent l'ing\u00e9rence \u00e9trang\u00e8re tr\u00e8s au s\u00e9rieux et qu'ils se pencheront sur ce probl\u00e8me. Le projet de loi pr\u00e9voit des mesures dans ce sens. Aucun intervenant \u00e9tranger ne serait autoris\u00e9 \u00e0 participer financi\u00e8rement aux \u00e9lections canadiennes. De plus, en ce qui concerne la publicit\u00e9 sur des plateformes comme Facebook, par exemple, l'ensemble des activit\u00e9s devraient se faire en toute transparence. Ce sont l\u00e0 des mesures importantes pour accro\u00eetre la transparence des \u00e9lections canadiennes et pour emp\u00eacher les intervenants \u00e9trangers de\u2026</p>"
