It started in December 2017 with the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> announcing that he was going to pursue this national council for reconciliation. From January to June 2018, the interim board of directors did the work it needed to do and reported, and had 20 very solid recommendations. It actually included in those recommendations a draft bill that could have been put forward in 2018. We then waited three and a half years for the <a data-HoCid=\"278922\" href=\"/politicians/marc-miller/\" title=\"Marc Miller\">minister</a> to appoint, in the next step, the transitional committee members.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7465854\" data-originallang=\"en\">Why does the member think there was a lack of urgency for three and a half years while this just sat in limbo?</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"7465853\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, pour faire suite \u00e0 la derni\u00e8re question du d\u00e9put\u00e9 concernant l'\u00e9volution des progr\u00e8s, tout a commenc\u00e9 en d\u00e9cembre 2017 lorsque le <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a> a annonc\u00e9 qu'il allait cr\u00e9er le conseil national de r\u00e9conciliation. De janvier \u00e0 juin 2018, le conseil d'administration provisoire a fait le travail qu'il devait faire et il a produit un rapport avec 20 recommandations tr\u00e8s solides. Ces recommandations comprenaient un projet de loi qui aurait pu \u00eatre pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 en 2018. Nous avons ensuite attendu trois ans et demi pour que le <a data-HoCid=\"278922\" href=\"/politicians/marc-miller/\" title=\"Marc Miller\">ministre</a> nomme, \u00e0 l'\u00e9tape suivante, les membres du comit\u00e9 de transition.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7465854\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pourquoi, selon le d\u00e9put\u00e9, y a-t-il eu un manque d'empressement pendant trois ans et demi, alors que ce dossier est rest\u00e9 en suspens?</p>"
