"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5408525\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, protecting the health and safety of Canadians is a top priority for our government. Our proposed approach would provide provinces, territories, and municipalities with the flexibility to impose reasonable restrictions on personal cultivation should they wish to do so. However, as our minister has clearly said, there are limits to the extent to which provinces and territories can adapt rules to their circumstances. Our government remains committed to ongoing discussions with provinces to ensure a smooth implementation of federal, provincial, and territorial cannabis legislation and regulatory frameworks.</p>",

L'approche que nous proposons donnerait aux provinces, aux territoires et aux municipalit\u00e9s la souplesse n\u00e9cessaire pour imposer des restrictions raisonnables quant \u00e0 la culture \u00e0 des fins personnelles, s'ils souhaitent emprunter cette voie. Toutefois, comme la ministre f\u00e9d\u00e9rale l'a clairement indiqu\u00e9, il y a des limites \u00e0 la marge de manoeuvre dont disposent les provinces et les territoires pour adapter les r\u00e8glements \u00e0 leur r\u00e9alit\u00e9. Le gouvernement du Canada demeure d\u00e9termin\u00e9 \u00e0 poursuivre les discussions avec les provinces pour assurer une mise en oeuvre harmonieuse des lois et des cadres r\u00e9glementaires f\u00e9d\u00e9raux, provinciaux et territoriaux sur le cannabis.</p>"
