"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6858454\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to rise for the first time as Conservative MP for the Bay of Quinte. It is my hope that we keep sitting in the House.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6858455\" data-originallang=\"en\">In my riding, there are multiple issues facing Canadians including immigration, inflation, a lack of skilled labour and mental health, but nothing is as dire right now as housing. In Prince Edward County, house prices have increased 170% this year alone. Last month, the average house price was $1.2 million, which is quite unaffordable. When we look at Belleville and Quinte West, house prices have doubled. At CFB Trenton, we currently have 300 men and women in uniform awaiting housing. Housing in the Liberal plan has just not worked in my region. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6858456\" data-originallang=\"en\">Speaking of respect, will the government commit to working with Conservatives on fixing this housing crisis once and for all?</p>",

J'ai bon espoir que nous continuerons \u00e0 si\u00e9ger \u00e0 la Chambre.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6858455\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les Canadiens qui habitent dans ma circonscription sont confront\u00e9s \u00e0 de nombreux probl\u00e8mes, comme l'immigration, l'inflation, le manque de main\u2011d'\u0153uvre sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9e et la sant\u00e9 mentale, mais \u00e0 l'heure actuelle, aucun n'est aussi grave que le probl\u00e8me du logement. Dans le comt\u00e9 de Prince Edward, le prix des maisons a augment\u00e9 de 170 % cette ann\u00e9e seulement. Le mois dernier, le prix moyen des maisons s'\u00e9levait \u00e0 1,2 million de dollars, ce qui est loin d'\u00eatre abordable. \u00c0 Belleville et \u00e0 Quinte West, le prix des maisons a doubl\u00e9. \u00c0 la base des Forces canadiennes de Trenton, 300 militaires attendent actuellement de trouver un logement. Dans ma r\u00e9gion, le plan des lib\u00e9raux pour le logement n'a tout simplement pas fonctionn\u00e9. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6858456\" data-originallang=\"en\">Puisqu'on parle de respect, le gouvernement s'engagera\u2011t\u2011il \u00e0 travailler avec les conservateurs afin de r\u00e9gler une fois pour toutes la crise du logement?</p>"
