"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6325794\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, we would not have come to this point if it was not for the intransigence in some instances and the lack of flexibility in the current programs that the government constructed. From the beginning, we have been providing timely advice to changes that were needed.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6325795\" data-originallang=\"en\"> For example, the CEBA program is a great program, but we had to ask for the extension on the pay threshold. We had to ask for sole proprietors to be included. That date, May 19, was the date the Liberals said people who had personal chequing accounts could apply for the CEBA. Only last week they were told they would now qualify. We need to do better for our small and medium-sized businesses and we need to do better for our tourism economy.</p>",

Depuis le d\u00e9but de la pand\u00e9mie, nous avons fourni des conseils opportuns sur les changements qui s'imposaient.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6325795\" data-originallang=\"en\">Par exemple, le Compte d'urgence pour les entreprises canadiennes est un excellent programme en soi, mais nous avons d\u00fb demander l'extension du seuil de r\u00e9mun\u00e9ration. Nous avons d\u00fb demander que les propri\u00e9taires uniques puissent \u00eatre admissibles eux aussi. Le 19 mai, les lib\u00e9raux ont affirm\u00e9 que les personnes qui utilisent un compte-ch\u00e8ques personnel seraient admissibles \u00e0 ce compte. Ce n'est que la semaine derni\u00e8re qu'elles ont appris qu'elles pourraient enfin y avoir recours. Nous devons en faire davantage pour les PME canadiennes, et nous devons en faire davantage pour l'industrie touristique. </p>"
