"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8091261\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Madam Speaker, I would like my colleague to remind us how the former leader of the Conservative Party, who was Speaker of the House, broke with a long tradition of impartiality and neutrality. We all agree that the current <a data-HoCid=\"300999\" href=\"/politicians/greg-fergus/\" title=\"Greg Fergus\">Speaker</a> made a monumental mistake, had a lapse of judgment and made a gaffe.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8091262\" data-originallang=\"fr\">However, the member for <a data-HoCid=\"278258\" href=\"/politicians/andrew-scheer/\" title=\"Andrew Scheer\">Regina\u2014Qu'Appelle</a> broke the standing tradition that once someone has been Speaker of the House, they do not return to partisan activities. Nevertheless, he later became leader of the Conservative Party.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8091263\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Does he not see that as a contradiction in his own speech?</p>",

Que le <a data-HoCid=\"300999\" href=\"/politicians/greg-fergus/\" title=\"Greg Fergus\">Pr\u00e9sident</a> actuel ait fait une erreur monumentale, qu'il ait eu un manque de jugement et qu'il ait fait une gaffe, nous en convenons tous.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8091262\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Cependant, le <a data-HoCid=\"278258\" href=\"/politicians/andrew-scheer/\" title=\"Andrew Scheer\">d\u00e9put\u00e9 de Regina\u2014Qu'Appelle</a> a bris\u00e9 cette tradition, qui veut qu'une fois qu'on a \u00e9t\u00e9 Pr\u00e9sident de la Chambre, on ne retourne plus \u00e0 des activit\u00e9s partisanes.
