"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8065585\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Madam Speaker, listening to the Conservatives is confusing. It is hard to tell where they are going. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8065586\" data-originallang=\"fr\">We talk about the carbon tax. We say that it does not apply in Quebec. They continue to say that it does. We saw that earlier. We say again that it does not apply, and they keep saying that yes, it does apply in Quebec. We repeat that it does not, and they say that it applies indirectly. We simply do not understand them anymore.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8065587\" data-originallang=\"fr\">When they talk about Ukraine, they stand up in the House and say that they are for Ukraine because they voted against Bill <a data-HoCid=\"12615058\" href=\"/bills/44-1/C-57/\" title=\"An Act to implement the 2023 Free Trade Agreement between Canada and Ukraine\">C\u201157</a>, which implements the Canada\u2011Ukraine free trade agreement. They are so twisted that now the Ukrainians are wondering what is happening with the Conservatives and why they are against Ukraine. The Conservatives need to stand up and set the record straight. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8065588\" data-originallang=\"fr\">My question is very simple. When someone has no substance to offer, the only weapon they have left is intimidation, correct?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"8065585\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, quand nous \u00e9coutons les conservateurs, nous sommes vraiment m\u00eal\u00e9s. Nous ne savons plus o\u00f9 ils s'en vont.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8065586\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Nous parlons de la taxe sur le carbone. Nous disons que cela ne s'applique pas au Qu\u00e9bec. Ils continuent \u00e0 dire que cela s'applique. Nous l'avons vu tant\u00f4t. Nous disons encore que cela ne s'applique pas, et ils continuent \u00e0 dire que oui, cela s'applique au Qu\u00e9bec. Nous le r\u00e9p\u00e9tons, et ils disent que cela s'applique de fa\u00e7on indirecte. Nous ne les comprenons plus.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8065587\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Quand ils parlent de l'Ukraine, ils se l\u00e8vent \u00e0 la Chambre pour dire qu'ils sont pour l'Ukraine parce qu'ils ont vot\u00e9 contre le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"12615058\" href=\"/bills/44-1/C-57/\" title=\"An Act to implement the 2023 Free Trade Agreement between Canada and Ukraine\">C\u201157</a> qui met en \u0153uvre l'accord de libre-\u00e9change Canada\u2011Ukraine. Ils sont tellement tout croches que c'est rendu que les Ukrainiens se demandent ce qui se passe avec les conservateurs, pourquoi ils sont contre l'Ukraine. Alors il faut que les conservateurs se l\u00e8vent \u00e0 la Chambre pour corriger le tir.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8065588\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Ma question est tr\u00e8s simple. Quand il n'y a pas de contenu, la seule arme qui reste, c'est l'intimidation, n'est-ce pas?</p>"
