I know that we are both alumni of the London School of Economics, and this is truly a Jim Hacker-level move that we are seeing.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5441320\" data-originallang=\"en\">The government has been running down pipelines repeatedly. It has been doing everything it can to prevent the private sector from succeeding. It turns out that it was all about the Liberals trying to get a good price on pipelines. They wanted to run them down so they could buy one.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5441321\" data-originallang=\"en\">I have a serious question for the minister. Why have the Liberals refused to support private sector development and have put every barrier in place for private sector development of pipelines? Why will they not allow the energy east pipeline, for example, to be considered on the basis of the same rules that were used in the case of Trans Mountain?</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5441319\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, je suis reconnaissant d'avoir l'occasion de poser une question \u00e0 la <a data-HoCid=\"214310\" href=\"/politicians/catherine-mckenna/\" title=\"Catherine McKenna\">ministre de l'Environnement</a>. Je sais que nous sommes tous deux d'anciens \u00e9tudiants de la London School of Economics, et nous observons en ce moment une manoeuvre digne de Jim Hacker.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5441320\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le gouvernement d\u00e9nigre sans cesse les pipelines. Il fait tout en son pouvoir pour emp\u00eacher le secteur priv\u00e9 de r\u00e9ussir. Il s'av\u00e8re que s'il a agi ainsi, c'\u00e9tait parce que les lib\u00e9raux tentaient d'obtenir des pipelines \u00e0 bon march\u00e9. Ils les ont d\u00e9nigr\u00e9s pour pouvoir en acheter un.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5441321\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'ai une question s\u00e9rieuse pour la ministre. Pourquoi les lib\u00e9raux ont-ils refus\u00e9 d'appuyer les projets du secteur priv\u00e9 et pourquoi mettent-ils toutes les barri\u00e8res imaginables en place pour emp\u00eacher l'am\u00e9nagement de pipelines par le secteur priv\u00e9? Par exemple, pourquoi refusent-ils d'examiner le projet \u00c9nergie Est en fonction des m\u00eames r\u00e8gles que celles qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 appliqu\u00e9es dans le cas du projet Trans Mountain?</p>"
