That is the role of Her Majesty's loyal opposition.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5712256\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Unfortunately, the current opposition tends to spend its time making innuendos, personal attacks and drive-by smear jobs that seem to consist of political debate. We are happy to exchange on ideas and to argue rigorously why our plan is right.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5712255\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, les gens qui regardent la p\u00e9riode des questions savent probablement que l'opposition a pour t\u00e2che de poser des questions, de critiquer les politiques du gouvernement, de voir \u00e0 ce que nos gestes r\u00e9pondent parfaitement aux besoins des Canadiens et de remettre nos d\u00e9cisions en question. C'est le r\u00f4le de la loyale opposition de Sa Majest\u00e9.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5712256\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Malheureusement, l'opposition actuelle s'emploie surtout \u00e0 faire des insinuations et des attaques personnelles et \u00e0 se livrer \u00e0 des campagnes de d\u00e9nigrement, en leur donnant l'allure d'un d\u00e9bat politique. Nous sommes toujours heureux d'avoir des d\u00e9bats d'id\u00e9es et de d\u00e9fendre avec rigueur le bien-fond\u00e9 de notre plan.</p>"
