However, this <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a>, this government and the Liberal members of this caucus pushed and ultimately made it an election platform, and now we have materialized on that commitment. Today, we have a majority of provinces on board and signed up, and we are moving forward on a national child care program.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6877411\" data-originallang=\"en\">Canadians also care about mental health and the importance of the national government having a leadership role in the area of health care. We are also prepared to deal with that leadership role.</p>",

Cependant, le <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a> actuel, le gouvernement en place et les d\u00e9put\u00e9s lib\u00e9raux de ce caucus ont d\u00e9fendu l'id\u00e9e, puis l'ont ensuite int\u00e9gr\u00e9e dans la plateforme \u00e9lectorale. Nous avons maintenant donn\u00e9 suite \u00e0 cet engagement. Aujourd'hui, une majorit\u00e9 de provinces ont conclu une entente \u00e0 ce sujet, et nous avan\u00e7ons vers l'\u00e9tablissement d'un programme national de garderies.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6877411\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les Canadiens se soucient aussi de la sant\u00e9 mentale et du r\u00f4le de premier plan que le gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral doit jouer dans le domaine de la sant\u00e9. Nous sommes pr\u00eats \u00e0 jouer ce r\u00f4le.</p>"
