        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6151604\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, these supports are a start. They need a more responsive government that acts a lot faster to address a lot of the failings that have gone on for so long. As this pandemic has shown us, even in the manufacturing sector, we rely on a lot of imports. As I said before, my area is so incredibly rich with respect to that agricultural production.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6151605\" data-originallang=\"en\">Again, I will return to the idea of local food security and production. We know where our food is coming from, we know what is in it and we know that it is safe. The reliance on those local farmers is key. Therefore, I hope we can start to move forward on national programs that really enhance that food security and ensure we have that local production.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6151604\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, les mesures propos\u00e9es sont un d\u00e9but. Cela dit, les producteurs agricoles ont besoin d'un gouvernement plus \u00e0 l'\u00e9coute, qui r\u00e9agit plus rapidement pour rem\u00e9dier aux nombreuses lacunes qui existent depuis si longtemps. Comme nous l'a montr\u00e9 la pand\u00e9mie, m\u00eame dans le secteur manufacturier, on d\u00e9pend d'un grand nombre d'importations. Comme je l'ai d\u00e9j\u00e0 mentionn\u00e9, dans ma r\u00e9gion, on respecte \u00e9norm\u00e9ment le travail des producteurs agricoles.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6151605\" data-originallang=\"en\">Encore une fois, je reviens \u00e0 l'id\u00e9e de la production locale d'aliments et de la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 alimentaire \u00e0 l'\u00e9chelle locale. Nous savons d'o\u00f9 viennent nos aliments, nous savons ce qu'ils contiennent et nous savons qu'ils sont sains. Les producteurs locaux jouent un r\u00f4le essentiel. J'esp\u00e8re donc que nous pourrons aller de l'avant avec des programmes nationaux qui favorisent la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 alimentaire et assurent le maintien de la production locale.</p>"
