        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5495890\" data-originallang=\"en\">That is easy, Mr. Speaker. We are a party that believes in the potential of every single woman and man across this country. We believe in their freedom. We believe that fewer regulations are better and that less taxation is better. We believe in supporting families and helping them thrive. We believe in affordability.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5495891\" data-originallang=\"en\">We want Canadian families to be able to make end's meet. We want them to do the things they need to do in order to contribute to Canadian society so we can all benefit. That is the kind of country we want to live in. We want to live in a prosperous country. We want to live in a country with a vibrant future, a country that invests in our next generation and leaves this country better for those to come than what we have experienced.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5495892\" data-originallang=\"en\">If that is the country we want, then we need to make sure we take away red tape. We need to make sure that we allow people to work for a dollar and it means a dollar. We need to make sure that we are giving people the opportunity to buy houses and cars because they have the means to do so, to invest in their children's education because they have the means to do so. Forcing people to live in poverty is not an option. That is not a good economic plan and it certainly is not a good environmental plan.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5495890\" data-originallang=\"en\">C'est facile, monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident. Notre parti croit au potentiel que poss\u00e8dent les femmes et les hommes de partout au pays. Nous croyons en leur libert\u00e9. Nous sommes d'avis qu'il faut moins de r\u00e8glements, moins de taxes et moins d'imp\u00f4t. Nous pr\u00f4nons le soutien aux familles, pour qu'elles prosp\u00e8rent. Nous pr\u00e9conisons l'abordabilit\u00e9. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5495891\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous voulons que les familles canadiennes puissent boucler les fins de mois. Nous voulons qu'elles fassent le n\u00e9cessaire pour contribuer \u00e0 la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 et au bien commun. Voil\u00e0 le genre de pays o\u00f9 nous souhaitons vivre. Nous voulons un pays prosp\u00e8re et \u00e0 l'avenir brillant, o\u00f9 on investit dans les g\u00e9n\u00e9rations futures pour qu'elles h\u00e9ritent d'un pays meilleur que celui qu'on a connu. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5495892\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pour que notre pays soit ainsi, nous devons \u00e9liminer les tracasseries administratives. Il faut permettre aux gens de garder l'argent qu'ils ont gagn\u00e9 et d'avoir les moyens d'acheter une maison ou une voiture et d'investir dans l'\u00e9ducation de leurs enfants. Forcer les gens \u00e0 vivre dans la pauvret\u00e9 n'est pas envisageable. Ce n'est pas un bon plan \u00e9conomique et certainement pas un bon plan environnemental.</p>"
