"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7422297\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I took it at face value when they said that it is in the Constitution that MPs should not be working in the evenings. I took out the Constitution and looked through it, but unless there is one wacky Conservative constitution that only they can read and only they can consult, there is nothing. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7422298\" data-originallang=\"en\">I cannot stress enough that there is nothing in the Canadian Constitution that stops a member of Parliament from working in the evening. There is nothing at all. I implore them to get a legitimate copy of the Canadian Constitution so that they can do their own research and prove it to themselves. </p>",

J'ai consult\u00e9 la Constitution. \u00c0 moins qu'il existe une constitution farfelue que seuls les conservateurs peuvent lire et consulter, il n'y a rien de tel.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7422298\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je ne saurais trop insister sur le fait que rien dans la Constitution canadienne n'emp\u00eache les d\u00e9put\u00e9s de travailler le soir. Il n'y a absolument rien de tel. J'implore les conservateurs d'obtenir une version officielle de la Constitution canadienne afin qu'ils puissent faire leurs propres recherches et qu'ils constatent d'eux-m\u00eames que c'est bien le cas.</p>"
