"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5785216\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, Conservative members of the Standing Committee on Transport, Infrastructure and Communities support the committee's report, which was just tabled. Transportation corridors are integral to the safe and efficient flow of goods in and out of Canada. However, we have supplied a supplementary report, as we felt that the main report did not adequately address a number of important issues that were raised, which I will briefly outline.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5785217\" data-originallang=\"en\">Over the course of the many meetings held during this study, we heard from numerous stakeholders regarding the detrimental impact certain government actions and policies are having and will continue to have on Canada's transportation system, and more specifically, on our transportation corridors.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5785218\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Specifically, the government policies we must highlight are Bill <a data-HoCid=\"8936657\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-48/\" title=\"An Act respecting the regulation of vessels that transport crude oil or persistent oil to or from ports or marine installations located along British Columbia's north coast\">C-48</a>, the Liberals' oil tanker moratorium act; Bill <a data-HoCid=\"9630600\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-69/\" title=\"An Act to enact the Impact Assessment Act and the Canadian Energy Regulator Act, to amend the Navigation Protection Act and to make consequential amendments to other Acts\">C-69</a>, the Liberals' attempt to rewrite the law and regulations to make it even harder for pipelines to get built; and the Liberal government's carbon tax. From being unnecessarily restrictive, to creating investment uncertainty, to increasing costs for transportation companies and shippers alike, the actions of the Liberal government need to be reversed.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5785219\" data-originallang=\"en\">To that end, we have included three simple recommendations in our supplementary report: to withdraw Bill <a data-HoCid=\"8936657\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-48/\" title=\"An Act respecting the regulation of vessels that transport crude oil or persistent oil to or from ports or marine installations located along British Columbia's north coast\">C-48</a>, to withdraw Bill <a data-HoCid=\"9630600\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-69/\" title=\"An Act to enact the Impact Assessment Act and the Canadian Energy Regulator Act, to amend the Navigation Protection Act and to make consequential amendments to other Acts\">C-69</a> and to eliminate the carbon tax.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5785220\" data-originallang=\"en\">I encourage the government members to read our supplementary report, but if they do not have time for that, I hope they will simply adopt our recommendations. We believe that doing this would greatly support Canada's transportation systems and our vitally important trade corridors.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5785216\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, les membres conservateurs du Comit\u00e9 permanent des transports, de l'infrastructure et des collectivit\u00e9s appuient le rapport que l'on vient de d\u00e9poser. Les corridors de transport font partie int\u00e9grante du mouvement s\u00e9curitaire et efficient des biens qui entrent au Canada et qui en sortent. Toutefois, nous avons fourni un rapport compl\u00e9mentaire parce que nous avons jug\u00e9 que le rapport principal ne traitait pas ad\u00e9quatement de nombreuses questions importantes qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 soulev\u00e9es, dont je vais parler bri\u00e8vement.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5785217\" data-originallang=\"en\">Lors des nombreuses rencontres qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 tenues au cours de cette \u00e9tude, de nombreux intervenants nous on parl\u00e9 de l'effet n\u00e9faste que certaines mesures et politiques gouvernementales ont et continueront d'avoir sur le syst\u00e8me de transport du Canada et, plus particuli\u00e8rement, sur les corridors de transport.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5785218\" data-originallang=\"en\">Notamment, les politiques gouvernementales qu'il faut souligner sont le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"8936657\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-48/\" title=\"An Act respecting the regulation of vessels that transport crude oil or persistent oil to or from ports or marine installations located along British Columbia's north coast\">C-48</a>, la Loi sur le moratoire relatif aux p\u00e9troliers des lib\u00e9raux; le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"9630600\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-69/\" title=\"An Act to enact the Impact Assessment Act and the Canadian Energy Regulator Act, to amend the Navigation Protection Act and to make consequential amendments to other Acts\">C-69</a>, la tentative des lib\u00e9raux de r\u00e9\u00e9crire la loi et les r\u00e8glements pour compliquer encore davantage la construction des pipelines; et la taxe sur le carbone du gouvernement lib\u00e9ral. Le gouvernement lib\u00e9ral a adopt\u00e9 des mesures inutilement restrictives, cr\u00e9\u00e9 de l'incertitude pour les investisseurs et augment\u00e9 les co\u00fbts tant pour les soci\u00e9t\u00e9s de transport que pour les exp\u00e9diteurs, et il doit faire marche arri\u00e8re.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5785219\" data-originallang=\"en\">\u00c0 cette fin, nous avons inclus trois recommandations simples dans notre rapport compl\u00e9mentaire: retirer le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"8936657\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-48/\" title=\"An Act respecting the regulation of vessels that transport crude oil or persistent oil to or from ports or marine installations located along British Columbia's north coast\">C-48</a>, retirer le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"9630600\" href=\"/bills/42-1/C-69/\" title=\"An Act to enact the Impact Assessment Act and the Canadian Energy Regulator Act, to amend the Navigation Protection Act and to make consequential amendments to other Acts\">C-69</a> et \u00e9liminer la taxe sur le carbone.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5785220\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'encourage les d\u00e9put\u00e9s minist\u00e9riels \u00e0 lire le rapport compl\u00e9mentaire, mais s'ils n'en ont pas le temps, j'esp\u00e8re qu'ils adopteront tout simplement nos recommandations. Nous estimons que ces mesures appuieront fortement les syst\u00e8mes de transport du Canada et les corridors de transport, qui sont essentiels pour le pays.</p>"
