"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7696259\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, one of the areas I want to focus on in the budget is specifically with respect to Lake Simcoe. I know the government has allocated a multi-million dollar fund for freshwater lakes and watersheds across the country.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7696260\" data-originallang=\"en\">One of the things that we are focused on locally, and I would consider the member to be part of that in central Ontario, is specific funding for Lake Simcoe and the reinstatement of the Lake Simcoe clean-up fund. As we know, a previous Conservative government invested close to $60 million and saw measurable improvements in phosphorus and fish habitats were coming back.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7696261\" data-originallang=\"en\">There were numerous councils around the Lake Simcoe watershed that passed motions asking for direct funding for Lake Simcoe. Why would that not have been specifically indicated in the budget as a direct funding mechanism for Lake Simcoe?</p>",

Je sais que le gouvernement pr\u00e9voit un fonds de plusieurs millions de dollars pour les lacs d\u2019eau douce et les bassins hydrographiques du pays.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7696260\" data-originallang=\"en\">L\u2019une des choses sur lesquelles nous nous concentrons \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9chelle locale, et je consid\u00e8re que cela inclut la circonscription de la d\u00e9put\u00e9e dans le centre de l\u2019Ontario, est un financement particulier pour le lac Simcoe et le r\u00e9tablissement du fonds d\u2019assainissement du lac Simcoe. Comme nous le savons, un pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent gouvernement conservateur a investi pr\u00e8s de 60 millions de dollars et a constat\u00e9 des am\u00e9liorations mesurables en ce qui concerne le phosphore et les habitats du poisson.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7696261\" data-originallang=\"en\">De nombreux conseils dans le secteur du bassin hydrologique du lac Simcoe ont adopt\u00e9 des motions demandant un financement direct pour le lac Simcoe. Pourquoi le budget ne pr\u00e9voit-il pas un m\u00e9canisme de financement direct pour le lac Simcoe?</p>"
