"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7816948\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I just want to correct my colleague. The Alberta NDP won every seat in Edmonton and the majority of seats in Calgary.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7816949\" data-originallang=\"en\">We know the Conservatives are more interested in flinging mud than looking for a solution. This is a matter of foreign interference, not just Chinese interference. Russia and Iran are also carrying out major covert operations. We only have to look at the United States in 2016 for evidence of that, or to reports of the Russian financing of the \u201cfreedom convoy\u201d in Ottawa in 2022, which we know the Conservatives supported. Singling out the Chinese has had a huge impact on the diaspora here in Canada.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7816950\" data-originallang=\"en\">Do the Conservatives agree with Canadians that we should be investigating all foreign interference in elections? Also, do they agree that we need to deal with foreign interference before we go into another election, not after?</p>",

Il s'agit d'ing\u00e9rence \u00e9trang\u00e8re, pas seulement de l'ing\u00e9rence de la Chine. La Russie et l'Iran m\u00e8nent eux aussi des op\u00e9rations secr\u00e8tes majeures. \u00c0 preuve, pensons aux \u00c9tats\u2011Unis en 2016 ou aux comptes rendus faisant \u00e9tat du financement vers\u00e9 par la Russie au \u00ab convoi pour la libert\u00e9 \u00bb \u00e0 Ottawa en 2022, que les conservateurs ont appuy\u00e9. Le fait qu'on ait point\u00e9 la Chine du doigt a eu d'\u00e9normes cons\u00e9quences pour la diaspora chinoise du Canada.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7816950\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les conservateurs estiment-ils, \u00e0 l'instar des Canadiens, que nous devrions enqu\u00eater sur toute ing\u00e9rence \u00e9trang\u00e8re dans les \u00e9lections? Sont-ils d'avis qu'il faut s'attaquer \u00e0 l'ing\u00e9rence \u00e9trang\u00e8re avant la tenue des prochaines \u00e9lections, et non apr\u00e8s?</p>"
