"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6939876\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, hard-working Canadians are frustrated with the Liberal government, and rightfully so. We see full oil tankers coming in on the east coast from dictatorships, from human rights abusers and from those who have no respect for the environment. However, our ethically produced, environmentally responsible, job-creating Alberta oil is blocked from getting to a market.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6939877\" data-originallang=\"en\">Canada is blessed with the third-largest proven oil reserves on the planet. We have among the toughest environmental standards and employment standards. We have the foundation to be an energy-independent country, with enough left over to export. That is why it is so unacceptable that Canada imports energy from 114 other countries.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6939878\" data-originallang=\"en\"> It is time for the Liberal government to end energy imports. It is time for the Liberal government to support Canada's energy independence. It is time for the Liberal government to support Canadians. Annabelle, loud and proud.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6939876\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, les travailleurs canadiens sont m\u00e9contents du gouvernement lib\u00e9ral, et on les comprend. La c\u00f4te Est du Canada accueille des navires-citernes pleins de p\u00e9trole produit par des pays dirig\u00e9s par des dictateurs, qui violent les droits fondamentaux de leurs citoyens et qui n'ont aucun respect pour l'environnement. Le p\u00e9trole canadien, lui, est incapable de se rendre jusqu'aux march\u00e9s, alors qu'il est produit dans le respect des normes d'\u00e9thique, qu'il est environnementalement responsable et qu'il permet de cr\u00e9er des emplois en Alberta. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6939877\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le Canada a la chance d'avoir les troisi\u00e8mes r\u00e9serves prouv\u00e9es de p\u00e9trole de la plan\u00e8te. Il s'est aussi dot\u00e9 des normes parmi les plus strictes du monde en mati\u00e8re d'emploi et de protection de l'environnement. Nous avons assez de p\u00e9trole pour \u00eatre autosuffisants sur le plan \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique et m\u00eame pour exporter nos surplus. C'est d'autant plus inacceptable de voir que nous importons de l'\u00e9nergie de 114 autres pays.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6939878\" data-originallang=\"en\">Il est temps que le gouvernement lib\u00e9ral mette fin aux importations d'\u00e9nergie. Il est temps qu'il favorise l'ind\u00e9pendance \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique du pays. Il est temps qu'il d\u00e9fende les int\u00e9r\u00eats des Canadiens. Annabelle, haut et fort.</p>"
