"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7714386\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, I was rather surprised because, throughout the clause-by-clause study, my colleague voted against the proposal to consult Quebec on the matter of positive measures. She voted against the proposal to let Quebec be in charge of its language planning. She voted against allowing the Charter of the French Language to take precedence in cases where there is a conflict between it and the Official Languages Act. I could name a whole host of amendments.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7714387\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I would also like to hear her opinion on something. In the official languages action plan, all of the grants are once again going to strengthen English in Quebec. How does she think that is going to help reverse the decline of French?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7714388\" data-originallang=\"fr\">It is French that is threatened, not English. It seems as though the federal government is going to continue funding and subsidizing only groups that encourage the anglicization of Quebec.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"7714386\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, tout au long de l'\u00e9tude article par article, j'ai \u00e9t\u00e9 assez surpris parce que ma coll\u00e8gue a vot\u00e9 contre la proposition de consulter le Qu\u00e9bec sur la question des mesures positives. Elle a vot\u00e9 contre la proposition voulant que le Qu\u00e9bec soit le ma\u00eetre d'\u0153uvre de son am\u00e9nagement linguistique et que, en cas de conflit entre la Loi sur les langues officielles et la Charte de la langue fran\u00e7aise, ce soit la Charte de la langue fran\u00e7aise qui domine. Je pourrais nommer une foule d'amendements.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7714387\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Je voudrais aussi avoir ses impressions. Dans le plan d'action pour les langues officielles, toutes les subventions servent encore une fois \u00e0 renforcer l'anglais au Qu\u00e9bec. Comment pense-t-elle que cela peut aider \u00e0 contrer le d\u00e9clin du fran\u00e7ais?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7714388\" data-originallang=\"fr\">C'est le fran\u00e7ais qui est menac\u00e9, ce n'est pas l'anglais. Il semble que le gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral va continuer \u00e0 ne financer et subventionner que les groupes qui favorisent l'anglicisation du Qu\u00e9bec.</p>"
