"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5965025\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, the member opposite focuses on one area with respect to the middle-class tax cut.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5965026\" data-originallang=\"en\">He talks about particular individuals who made <em>x</em> number of dollars. What about the hundreds of thousands of teachers, firefighters, factory workers and others who received that middle class tax cut? The bulk of that hundreds of millions of dollars went to those individuals. By investing in our middle class, we were able to increase disposable income. That meant they were able to visit the local restaurant, go to retail outlets and invest in our economy. By investing in the economy, by spending, it generated additional jobs.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5965027\" data-originallang=\"en\">The member and the Conservatives are off base. I think what it might be is a little remorse. At the end of the day, the Conservatives voted against the tax break for Canada's middle class.</p>",

Que fait-il des centaines de milliers d'enseignants, de pompiers, de travailleurs d'usine et d'autres personnes qui ont b\u00e9n\u00e9fici\u00e9 des all\u00e9gements fiscaux pour la classe moyenne? Ce sont surtout eux qui ont profit\u00e9 de ces centaines de millions de dollars en all\u00e9gements fiscaux. Gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 nos investissements, les gens de la classe moyenne ont vu leur revenu disponible augmenter. Ils ont pu investir cet argent dans notre \u00e9conomie, que ce soit en allant dans un restaurant local ou en faisant des achats dans des magasins. Ces investissements et ces d\u00e9penses ont cr\u00e9\u00e9 des emplois.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5965027\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le d\u00e9put\u00e9 et les conservateurs ont tout faux. Ils ont peut-\u00eatre quelques remords, car, apr\u00e8s tout, les conservateurs ont vot\u00e9 contre les all\u00e9gements fiscaux pour les Canadiens de la classe moyenne.</p>"
