"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5345884\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, the member made reference to access to information. He will know that the government, in a short term, in two and a half years, has brought substantial changes to access to information. It was the first real major overhaul of the legislation in over 30 years.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5345885\" data-originallang=\"en\">When there are ideas and thoughts that we can continue to move forward, the government has demonstrated a tremendous amount of good will, such as making public the mandate letters and introducing access to information legislation. Time and again, the government has moved the House forward on issues, even at times of resistance from opposition members.</p>",

Il sait pertinemment qu\u2019en deux ans et demi \u00e0 peine, le gouvernement a am\u00e9lior\u00e9 consid\u00e9rablement les conditions d\u2019acc\u00e8s \u00e0 l\u2019information. Il s'agissait d'ailleurs de la premi\u00e8re r\u00e9vision importante de la loi depuis plus de 30 ans.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5345885\" data-originallang=\"en\">Lorsque des id\u00e9es et des suggestions sont faites pour am\u00e9liorer les choses, le gouvernement est toujours dispos\u00e9 \u00e0 les prendre en consid\u00e9ration, ce qu\u2019il a fait notamment en rendant publiques les lettres de mandat et en proposant des modifications \u00e0 la loi sur l\u2019acc\u00e8s \u00e0 l\u2019information. Dans bien des cas, le gouvernement a fait avancer la Chambre sur certains dossiers, m\u00eame quand il y avait de la r\u00e9sistance chez les d\u00e9put\u00e9s de l\u2019opposition.</p>"
