I would like to ask my colleague a very specific question, since we are debating an environmental bill that protects species. Everyone is familiar with the monarch butterfly, that little orange butterfly. It is a species at risk that will now become an endangered species. A good part of the land where the monarch butterfly feeds on milkweed, its main source of food, is part of the Montreal airport. Over the past 10 years, the monarch butterfly population has declined by 85%. Our <a data-HoCid=\"278910\" href=\"/politicians/steven-guilbeault/\" title=\"Steven Guilbeault\">Minister of Environment</a> says he defends biodiversity, but he is doing absolutely nothing to protect the monarch butterfly on federally owned land.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7814205\" data-originallang=\"fr\">What would the Conservative Party do to save the monarch butterfly?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"7814203\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je remercie mon coll\u00e8gue de son discours toujours passionn\u00e9 et bien imag\u00e9 avec des termes qui \u00e9taient vraiment int\u00e9ressants \u00e0 suivre.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7814204\" data-originallang=\"fr\">On vit probablement la sixi\u00e8me grande vague d'extinction des esp\u00e8ces sur la plan\u00e8te. J'aimerais poser une question tr\u00e8s pr\u00e9cise \u00e0 mon coll\u00e8gue, puisqu'on parle d'une loi environnementale et de la protection des esp\u00e8ces. Il y a le papillon monarque, ce petit papillon orange \u2014 par hasard \u2014 que tout le monde conna\u00eet. C'est une esp\u00e8ce en p\u00e9ril qui va devenir maintenant une esp\u00e8ce en voie de disparition. Une bonne partie des terrains o\u00f9 s'alimente le papillon monarque se trouve sur le territoire de l'a\u00e9roport de Montr\u00e9al, parce qu'il y a des ascl\u00e9piades, la plante dont se nourrit le papillon monarque. Le papillon monarque a vu sa population diminuer de 85 % dans les 10 derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es. On a un <a data-HoCid=\"278910\" href=\"/politicians/steven-guilbeault/\" title=\"Steven Guilbeault\">ministre de l'Environnement</a> qui dit d\u00e9fendre la biodiversit\u00e9, mais qui ne fait absolument rien pour prot\u00e9ger le papillon monarque sur des terres qui sont de propri\u00e9t\u00e9 f\u00e9d\u00e9rale.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7814205\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Qu'est-ce que le Parti conservateur ferait pour sauver le papillon monarque?</p>"
