"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6273795\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I might not necessarily be the best person to ask regarding those types of targets. I suspect if he were to ask that question of the <a data-HoCid=\"253376\" href=\"/politicians/jonathan-wilkinson/\" title=\"Jonathan Wilkinson\">Minister of Environment</a>, the hon. member would be quite happy with the response he would get. I have more confidence in this government hitting the targets than the previous Harper administration. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6273796\" data-originallang=\"en\">I look at the tangibles, as my constituents want to see something tangible. For example, the throne speech announces banning single-use plastics. That is something we can all relate to and see as a positive thing. In the throne speech, there are a number of initiatives, like encouraging consumers to buy electric cars and providing supports to do so. There are all sorts of positive things for our environment in the throne speech.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6273795\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je ne suis pas n\u00e9cessairement le mieux plac\u00e9 pour r\u00e9pondre \u00e0 ce type de question. J'imagine que la r\u00e9ponse satisferait le d\u00e9put\u00e9 s'il s'adressait au <a data-HoCid=\"253376\" href=\"/politicians/jonathan-wilkinson/\" title=\"Jonathan Wilkinson\">ministre de l'Environnement</a>. Chose certaine, j'ai plus tendance \u00e0 croire notre gouvernement quand il dit qu'il va atteindre les cibles en question que quand le gouvernement Harper disait la m\u00eame chose.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6273796\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aime bien les exemples concrets, puisque c'est ce que les \u00e9lecteurs de ma circonscription veulent voir. Le discours du Tr\u00f4ne annonce par exemple que les plastiques \u00e0 usage unique seront interdits. C'est le genre de mesure que nous comprenons tous et \u00e0 laquelle nous pouvons tous nous rallier. Le discours du Tr\u00f4ne pr\u00e9voit toutes sortes d'autres initiatives, comme inciter les consommateurs \u00e0 acheter des voitures \u00e9lectriques, notamment au moyen de primes incitatives. Le discours du Tr\u00f4ne regorge de bonnes nouvelles pour l'environnement.</p>"
