"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6325764\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, my colleague and I have something in common that I do not know if he realizes. I also come from a tourism background. I used to run a restaurant with my family on the Cabot Trail. I am keenly aware of how much the tourism sector has suffered in this pandemic and how much it is at risk. I certainly know that in my community in British Columbia we were told that the Western Diversification Canada office would have adequate funds to help the tourism sector. Those funds ran out in an nanosecond.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6325765\" data-originallang=\"en\">I ask my hon. colleague if he thinks the motion brought forward today by his party is adequate to meet the needs of the tourism sector.</p>",

Ma famille avait un restaurant sur la piste Cabot. Je sais que la pand\u00e9mie fait tr\u00e8s mal au secteur touristique et qu'il est menac\u00e9. Je sais aussi que le bureau du minist\u00e8re de la Diversification de l'\u00e9conomie de l'Ouest nous avait dit que nous aurions assez d'argent, dans ma circonscription de la Colombie-Britannique, pour aider le secteur du tourisme. Ces fonds se sont \u00e9puis\u00e9s en une nanoseconde.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6325765\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aimerais savoir si, d'apr\u00e8s le d\u00e9put\u00e9, la motion que son parti pr\u00e9sente aujourd'hui r\u00e9pondrait aux besoins du secteur du tourisme.</p>"
