In particular, the issue right now is when they are going to go back to their regular hours, but that is another conversation. It is not the conversation today.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7441025\" data-originallang=\"en\">The Liberals have been saying for the past seven years that this is going to happen, yet it has taken this long just to get here. Why has it taken so long to get the bill to this stage, and why is it being rushed at this point?</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"7441024\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, il y a cinq postes frontaliers dans ma circonscription. Je si\u00e8ge \u00e0 la Chambre depuis sept ans. Mes concitoyens m'ont souvent signal\u00e9 des points positifs et n\u00e9gatifs concernant l'Agence des services frontaliers du Canada. C'est encore plus vrai ces derniers temps en raison de la pand\u00e9mie de COVID\u201119 et de la fermeture des fronti\u00e8res. En ce moment, les gens se demandent surtout quand l'Agence reviendra \u00e0 son horaire normal, mais l\u00e0 n'est pas le sujet du d\u00e9bat d'aujourd'hui. Ce n'est pas la question qui nous occupe.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7441025\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les lib\u00e9raux disent depuis sept ans que la commission verra le jour, et pourtant, il a fallu tout ce temps pour en arriver seulement l\u00e0. Pourquoi a-t-il fallu tout ce temps pour que le projet de loi parvienne \u00e0 cette \u00e9tape, et pourquoi en pr\u00e9cipite-t-on l'adoption \u00e0 ce stade-ci?</p>"
