"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7450175\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I would like to remind the opposite side of the House and Canadians that Conservatives voted with us to support Canadians during the pandemic. If they are having heartache over that now, that is on their conscience, not on ours, because we did the right thing to support Canadians.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7450176\" data-originallang=\"en\">Canadians and people around the world are facing a crisis when it comes to the cost of living. While we have the lowest debt-to-GDP ratio and the lowest deficit in the G7, while we have among the lowest inflation in the world, that is not good enough. That is why we are helping those Canadians who need it the most when they need it the most, investing in the economy so that it can grow, and investing in our fiscal position so that we can meet the challenges of the future.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"7450175\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je rappelle aux d\u00e9put\u00e9s d'en face et aux Canadiens que les conservateurs ont appuy\u00e9 les mesures du gouvernement qui visaient \u00e0 soutenir les Canadiens pendant la pand\u00e9mie. S'ils regrettent maintenant de l'avoir fait, ils doivent se bl\u00e2mer eux-m\u00eames, et non nous, car nous avons fait ce qu'il fallait pour soutenir les Canadiens.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7450176\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les Canadiens et les gens du monde entier sont aux prises avec une crise du co\u00fbt de la vie. Certes, le Canada a le ratio dette-PIB le plus bas du G7, le d\u00e9ficit le plus bas du G7 et l'un des taux d'inflation les plus bas de la plan\u00e8te, mais cela ne suffit pas. C'est pourquoi nous venons en aide aux Canadiens qui en ont le plus besoin au moment o\u00f9 ils en ont le plus besoin, nous investissons dans la croissance de l'\u00e9conomie et nous investissons dans notre situation financi\u00e8re pour \u00eatre en mesure de relever les d\u00e9fis de l'avenir.</p>"
