This is mudslinging. This is a member trying to poison our parliamentary environment with a litany of I do not know what. The partisan jabs, we can take, but when a member of the House goes after institutions like the Auditor General and the RCMP federal investigative forces, that is beyond the pale.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8608519\" data-originallang=\"en\">They go after individuals. By the way, because it is not something that I do, I really do feel sorry for the member because she seems to be a talented person, yet she has been reduced to that. Annette Verschuren was actually a former adviser to Stephen Harper and, I believe, to Jim Flaherty\u2014</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"8608518\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, j'ai \u00e9cout\u00e9 le discours de ma coll\u00e8gue d'en face \u2014 si on peut vraiment parler de discours \u2014 et je tiens \u00e0 ce que les gens qui sont \u00e0 la tribune soient conscients de ce qui se passe ici. Il s'agit d'une op\u00e9ration de salissage. La d\u00e9put\u00e9e tente d'empoisonner notre environnement parlementaire avec une litanie de je sais trop quoi. Nous pouvons accepter les attaques partisanes, mais il est inacceptable qu'un d\u00e9put\u00e9 s'en prenne \u00e0 des institutions comme le Bureau du v\u00e9rificateur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral et les services d'enqu\u00eate f\u00e9d\u00e9raux de la GRC.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8608519\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les conservateurs s'en prennent \u00e0 des particuliers. Soit dit en passant, comme ce n'est pas quelque chose que je fais, je suis vraiment d\u00e9sol\u00e9e que la d\u00e9put\u00e9e soit tomb\u00e9e si bas, \u00e9tant donn\u00e9 qu'elle semble tr\u00e8s talentueuse. Annette Verschuren a d\u00e9j\u00e0 \u00e9t\u00e9 conseill\u00e8re de Stephen Harper et, je crois, de Jim Flaherty...</p>"
