"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6940527\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, my colleague touched upon the idea of a guaranteed basic income. At the end of the day, I will put my own thoughts on the table and then ask the question. I think the idea of looking at the variety of social safety net programs, both provincially and federally, and consolidating those programs to have one guaranteed payment that would be available, as well as to get administrative savings from some of the delivery of these programs from the bureaucracy to augment those programs, is an idea worth exploring.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6940528\" data-originallang=\"en\">I am wondering where her thoughts are. Sometimes every parliamentarian has a different view on whether we are adding this program on top of the existing social safety net. The Parliamentary Budget Officer said that it could be close to $90 billion per year to do something of that nature. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6940529\" data-originallang=\"en\">Could the member describe to the House exactly the parameters? Would it be adding to the safety net, or trying to solidify and make efficiencies in our existing system?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6940527\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, ma coll\u00e8gue a parl\u00e9 d'un revenu de base garanti. Je vais partager mes propres r\u00e9flexions puis poser une question. Je crois qu'il vaut la peine d'explorer l'id\u00e9e d'examiner l'\u00e9ventail des programmes de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 sociale, tant provinciaux que f\u00e9d\u00e9raux, et de les regrouper afin d'offrir un seul paiement garanti et de r\u00e9aliser des \u00e9conomies sur l'administration de la prestation de ces programmes afin de les bonifier.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6940528\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aimerais conna\u00eetre son opinion. Il est possible que chaque parlementaire ait une opinion diff\u00e9rente concernant le fait que ce programme vient s'ajouter au filet social existant. Le directeur parlementaire du budget a dit qu'une telle mesure pourrait co\u00fbter pr\u00e8s de 90 milliards de dollars par ann\u00e9e.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6940529\" data-originallang=\"en\">La d\u00e9put\u00e9e pourrait-elle d\u00e9crire les param\u00e8tres exacts \u00e0 la Chambre? S'agit-il d'un ajout au filet social existant, ou d'une tentative de renforcer et de rendre plus efficient le syst\u00e8me existant?</p>"
