"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6577365\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, the deputy minister is proving that the government is well aware that, despite the deficit from the pandemic, Canada's debt-to-GDP ratio is the lowest in the G7 while Quebec and the provinces are going in debt because of skyrocketing health costs. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6577366\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The Parliamentary Budget Officer already confirmed it; the Conference Board as well, as did the Council of the Federation and the National Assembly of Quebec. Today, we have confirmation that the government knows that all those people are right. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6577367\" data-originallang=\"fr\">However, it chooses to continue to starve the health networks by refusing to increase health transfers. Why?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6577365\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, ce que le sous-ministre r\u00e9v\u00e8le, c'est que le gouvernement est bien au fait que, malgr\u00e9 le d\u00e9ficit d\u00e9coulant de la pand\u00e9mie, le Canada aura le ratio dette-PIB le plus bas du G7 pendant que le Qu\u00e9bec et les provinces s'endettent \u00e0 cause des co\u00fbts de sant\u00e9 qui explosent.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6577366\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> Le directeur parlementaire du budget l'avait d\u00e9j\u00e0 d\u00e9montr\u00e9; le Conference Board aussi, le Conseil de la f\u00e9d\u00e9ration aussi, l'Assembl\u00e9e nationale du Qu\u00e9bec aussi. Aujourd'hui, nous avons la confirmation que le gouvernement sait que tout ce beau monde a raison.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6577367\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Pourtant, il choisit de continuer d'affamer les r\u00e9seaux de sant\u00e9 en refusant d'augmenter les transferts en sant\u00e9. Pourquoi?</p>"
