"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6374159\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I rise to present yet another petition from young people in my riding of South Okanagan\u2014West Kootenay and the neighbouring riding of <a data-HoCid=\"253059\" href=\"/politicians/rob-morrison/\" title=\"Rob Morrison\">Kootenay\u2014Columbia</a>. They are concerned about climate change, and they point out that the government's targets on climate change are totally inadequate and the actions have been even less effective. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6374160\" data-originallang=\"en\">They want jobs that are sustainable and not for short-term gain at the expense of future generations. They therefore ask the government to support their future with a detailed climate strategy, science-based targets and the elimination of fossil-fuel subsidies, redirecting those funds to renewable energy systems, energy efficiency, low-carbon transportation and job training.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6374159\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, je prends de nouveau la parole aujourd'hui afin de pr\u00e9senter une p\u00e9tition sign\u00e9e par des jeunes de ma circonscription et de la circonscription voisine <a data-HoCid=\"253059\" href=\"/politicians/rob-morrison/\" title=\"Rob Morrison\">Kootenay\u2014Columbia</a>. Les changements climatiques inqui\u00e8tent les p\u00e9titionnaires, qui rappellent, d'une part, que les cibles du Canada sont totalement inad\u00e9quates et, d'autre part, que les mesures prises par le Canada sont compl\u00e8tement inefficaces. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6374160\" data-originallang=\"en\">Ils veulent qu'au lieu de viser le gain \u00e0 court terme au d\u00e9triment des g\u00e9n\u00e9rations futures, les emplois s'inscrivent dans une perspective durable. Les p\u00e9titionnaires demandent au gouvernement d'am\u00e9liorer leurs perspectives en pr\u00e9sentant une strat\u00e9gie climatique qui serait assortie de cibles scientifiquement \u00e9prouv\u00e9es, qui \u00e9liminerait les subventions aux combustibles fossiles et qui r\u00e9investirait les fonds ainsi \u00e9conomis\u00e9s dans la production d'\u00e9nergie renouvelable, les projets \u00e0 haute efficacit\u00e9 \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique, les moyens de transport qui produisent peu de gaz carbonique et la formation professionnelle.</p>"
