"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"7881323\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Madam Speaker, I would like to come back to the minister's heated reaction. We know he is quite a passionate man and that this bill is important to him, but I believe he misunderstood the meaning of my question earlier. I really want to refocus my question on the concept of a closure motion.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881324\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> In its entire history, the Bloc Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois has supported under 10 closure motions. When it did give its support, it was because it was truly crucial that the bill being considered at the time be freed up. In 2021, in regard to Bill <a data-HoCid=\"10926636\" href=\"/bills/43-2/C-10/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Broadcasting Act and to make related and consequential amendments to other Acts\">C\u201110</a>, the Bloc Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois even suggested publicly that closure be used and recommended that the Liberals impose a time allocation motion because the government had lost control of the agenda. Something needed to be done to move the bill forward.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881325\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Right now, the government has not lost control with Bill <a data-HoCid=\"11668222\" href=\"/bills/44-1/C-18/\" title=\"An Act respecting online communications platforms that make news content available to persons in Canada\">C\u201118</a>. Everything is going pretty smoothly. We are in the final stage and there is no need to, say, free up something stuck somewhere due to filibustering. Earlier, I asked a question about the fact that we have two or three days left to debate Bill C\u201118.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881326\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Yes, I want to see it passed this week at all costs, but my question was whether the minister had given up hope of having the bill passed in the usual manner by the end of the week and that was why he was imposing the closure motion today.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881327\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I would like to hear from the minister on this.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"7881323\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, j'aimerais revenir sur la r\u00e9action du ministre qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 tr\u00e8s sanguine. On sait que c'est un gars passionn\u00e9 et je sais que c'est un projet de loi qui lui tient \u00e0 c\u0153ur, mais je pense qu'il a mal compris le sens de ma question tant\u00f4t. Je veux vraiment r\u00e9orienter ma question sur la notion de motion de cl\u00f4ture, de b\u00e2illon.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881324\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Dans son histoire, le Bloc qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois a appuy\u00e9 moins de 10 b\u00e2illons. Quand cela a \u00e9t\u00e9 fait, c'est parce qu'il \u00e9tait vraiment essentiel qu'on d\u00e9bloque le projet de loi qui \u00e9tait \u00e0 l'\u00e9tude \u00e0 ce moment. En 2021, en ce qui concerne le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"10926636\" href=\"/bills/43-2/C-10/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Broadcasting Act and to make related and consequential amendments to other Acts\">C\u201110</a>, c'est m\u00eame le Bloc qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois qui a propos\u00e9 le b\u00e2illon publiquement, qui a propos\u00e9 aux lib\u00e9raux d'imposer un b\u00e2illon parce que le gouvernement n'\u00e9tait pas du tout en contr\u00f4le de l'agenda, si on me pr\u00eate l'anglicisme. Il fallait faire quelque chose pour d\u00e9bloquer le projet de loi.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881325\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Pr\u00e9sentement, le gouvernement n'est pas hors contr\u00f4le avec le projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"11668222\" href=\"/bills/44-1/C-18/\" title=\"An Act respecting online communications platforms that make news content available to persons in Canada\">C\u201118</a>. Tout va relativement normalement. On est \u00e0 l'\u00e9tape finale et on n'a pas besoin de d\u00e9bloquer quelque chose qui est coinc\u00e9 quelque part par de l'obstruction, par exemple. Tout \u00e0 l'heure, ma question portait sur le fait qu'il reste encore deux ou trois jours au cours desquels on aurait pu continuer \u00e0 d\u00e9battre du projet de loi C\u201118.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881326\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> Oui, je veux que ce soit adopt\u00e9 cette semaine \u00e0 tout prix, mais ma question \u00e9tait la suivante: le ministre a-t-il perdu tout espoir que cela se fasse de fa\u00e7on normale d'ici la fin de la semaine et est-ce la raison pour laquelle il impose le b\u00e2illon aujourd'hui?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"7881327\" data-originallang=\"fr\">J'aimerais entendre le ministre \u00e0 ce sujet.</p>"
