"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7113434\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, toward the conclusion of his speech, the hon. member justified why Conservatives have intentionally slowed this down. He basically said that it is because there is something in here that he would like to see different, but that is not how the democratic process works. This bill was introduced. It was debated here. It went to committee. Suggestions were made there. It came back from committee. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7113435\" data-originallang=\"en\">You win some; you lose some. He might not get exactly what he is looking for right now, but at the end of the day, he has to respect the fact that the democratic process worked. What he is basically saying is that because he did not get his way, he is going to kick and scream and not let this bill pass. Is that essentially what he is trying to tell this House?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"7113434\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, \u00e0 la fin de son allocution, le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a expliqu\u00e9 pourquoi les conservateurs ont d\u00e9lib\u00e9r\u00e9ment ralenti le d\u00e9bat. En gros, il a dit que c\u2019est parce qu\u2019il souhaiterait voir des mesures diff\u00e9rentes dans le projet de loi, mais ce n\u2019est pas de cette mani\u00e8re que fonctionne le processus d\u00e9mocratique. Ce projet de loi a \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9pos\u00e9. Il a \u00e9t\u00e9 renvoy\u00e9 au comit\u00e9 et il nous est revenu.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7113435\" data-originallang=\"en\">On ne peut pas toujours avoir ce qu\u2019on veut. Mon coll\u00e8gue n\u2019aura peut-\u00eatre pas exactement ce qu\u2019il souhaite en ce moment, mais au bout du compte, il doit respecter le fait que c\u2019est le processus d\u00e9mocratique. Ce qu\u2019il est en train de dire, au fond, c\u2019est que parce qu\u2019il n\u2019a pas obtenu ce qu\u2019il voulait, il va se battre pour emp\u00eacher l\u2019adoption du projet de loi. Est-ce bien cela qu\u2019il essaie de dire \u00e0 la Chambre?</p>"
