In Canada right now, there are 26 million vehicles on our roads. We can imagine, if we added 11 million vehicles, the pollution that we would see in our cities and the level of asthma that our kids would have to go through. This is not happening, because we have put a plan in place to help fight pollution, to help fight climate change and to support Canadians in the process. </p>",

Au Canada, il y a actuellement 26 millions de v\u00e9hicules sur les routes. On peut imaginer le niveau de pollution que nous observerions dans les villes et le nombre de cas d'asthme que les enfants canadiens auraient \u00e0 subir si on ajoutait 11 millions de v\u00e9hicules sur les routes. Cela n'arrivera pas, car nous avons mis en place un plan pour lutter contre la pollution, pour lutter contre les changements climatiques et, ce faisant, pour soutenir les Canadiens.</p>"
