"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6298231\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, students and graduates in my riding of Edmonton Strathcona are struggling to make ends meet. Students could not get summer jobs because of COVID-19, and recent graduates cannot get jobs to kick-start their futures. This Liberal government promised close to $1 billion to help students, instead it helped its friends at WE, and the students have received none of this money. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6298232\" data-originallang=\"en\">This government could help students right now with rent, tuition fees and groceries. Liberals owe students this money. When will they ensure that the funding goes to students who need it the most?</p>",

Les \u00e9tudiants n'ont pas pu occuper un emploi d'\u00e9t\u00e9 en raison de la COVID-19, et les nouveaux dipl\u00f4m\u00e9s n'ont pas pu trouver un emploi pour d\u00e9marrer leur carri\u00e8re. Le gouvernement lib\u00e9ral avait promis pr\u00e8s de 1 milliard de dollars pour aider les \u00e9tudiants, mais il a pr\u00e9f\u00e9r\u00e9 aider ses amis de l'organisme UNIS, et les \u00e9tudiants n'ont pas vu la couleur de cet argent. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6298232\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le gouvernement peut aider les \u00e9tudiants d\u00e8s aujourd'hui avec des mesures d'aide pour leur logement, leurs frais de scolarit\u00e9 et leur \u00e9picerie. Les lib\u00e9raux doivent ces fonds aux \u00e9tudiants. Quand feront-ils en sorte que l'argent soit distribu\u00e9 aux \u00e9tudiants qui en ont le plus besoin?</p>"
