"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6325610\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I was not around in those days, but in listening to the member, it sounds like he was describing what we just experienced in the last six months. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6325611\" data-originallang=\"en\">All I know is that there was a slow response from the current government to this pandemic. There was an inadequate response, especially for small businesses. Small businesses needed help and it was not there, which forced them to lay off people. Now the government is finally coming back and making some of those corrections to the programs that should have been made months ago and for which we as opposition have been asking. That is what I have seen. The government should have acted faster.</p>",

Les mesures qu'il a prises sont inad\u00e9quates, surtout pour les petites entreprises. Elles avaient besoin d'aide et n'en ont pas re\u00e7ue. Elles ont donc \u00e9t\u00e9 oblig\u00e9es de faire des mises \u00e0 pied. Le gouvernement revient finalement sur ses programmes et y apporte quelques correctifs qui auraient d\u00fb \u00eatre faits il y a des mois et que l'opposition r\u00e9clamait pourtant. Voil\u00e0 ce que je vois, moi. Le gouvernement aurait d\u00fb r\u00e9agir plus vite.</p>"
