"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7650314\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I am not going to speculate about anything in regard to the budget, but what I can say is that I believe it works out to 14\u00a2 or 15\u00a2 for a case of 24 bottles of beer. That is less than a penny per bottle of beer. That is the essence of what we are talking about. Canadians from coast to coast to coast are concerned about a wide spectrum of issues, whether it is health care, the environment, what is happening around the world today and in Ukraine, how we can continue to support Canadians or how we ensure that there is ongoing transparency and accountability. There is a wide spectrum of things that are out there. I do not know to what degree 12\u00a2 or 15\u00a2 for a case of 24 beers rates as the top priority of Canadians. I suspect it does not.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"7650314\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je ne ferai aucune sp\u00e9culation sur le budget, mais je peux vous dire que je crois que le montant dont il est question est de 14 \u00a2 ou 15 \u00a2 pour une caisse de 24 bouteilles de bi\u00e8re. Cela repr\u00e9sente moins de 1 \u00a2 par bi\u00e8re. Voil\u00e0 l'essentiel de la question qui nous occupe. Les Canadiens d'un bout \u00e0 l'autre du pays sont pr\u00e9occup\u00e9s par bien des enjeux, qu'il s'agisse des services de sant\u00e9, de l'environnement, de la situation dans le monde, notamment en Ukraine, des mesures de soutien du gouvernement ou de sa transparence et son obligation de rendre des comptes. Il y a une multitude de probl\u00e8mes \u00e0 r\u00e9gler. Je ne sais pas dans quelle mesure une augmentation de 12 \u00a2 ou 15 \u00a2 pour une caisse de 24 bi\u00e8res constitue la priorit\u00e9 des Canadiens. Je ne pense pas que ce soit le cas.</p>"
