"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7648216\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, after eight years of the Liberal government, there are almost six million Canadians without access to primary care. In my province of Nova Scotia alone, almost 140,000 people do not have access. Two days ago, the Conservatives over here introduced a blue seal program under which there will be a common standard for doctors trained elsewhere to gain a licence here in Canada. Canadians are beyond frustrated knowing that the doctors who have immigrated to this country are only to be left out in the cold.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7648217\" data-originallang=\"en\">When will the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> admit his wrongdoings and take action on behalf of all Canadians?</p>",
