"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5795805\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, we take very seriously the matter before the justice committee and indeed the Conflict of Interest and Ethics Commissioner. That is why, as a government, we were determined to take the unprecedented step of waiving cabinet confidentiality, of waiving solicitor-client privilege, which allows the former <a data-HoCid=\"214558\" href=\"/politicians/jody-wilson-raybould/\" title=\"Jody Wilson-Raybould\">attorney general</a> to speak fully to the matter in question. This is something that Canadians expect. They want to be able to hear different perspectives on this matter and that is exactly what they are going to get to hear.</p>",

C'est pourquoi, en tant que gouvernement, nous avons pris une mesure sans pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent en renon\u00e7ant \u00e0 la confidentialit\u00e9 des d\u00e9lib\u00e9rations du Cabinet et en suspendant le privil\u00e8ge avocat-client, ce qui permet \u00e0 l'ancienne <a data-HoCid=\"214558\" href=\"/politicians/jody-wilson-raybould/\" title=\"Jody Wilson-Raybould\">procureure g\u00e9n\u00e9rale</a> de tout dire sur cette question.
