"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8594626\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, we have been debating this issue for some time now. We said that we agree on the substance. We absolutely must ensure that the House's privilege is respected and that we get these documents. I have been listening carefully to the debate from my seat in the House and from the lobby. From what I understand, the Conservative Party is less interested in obtaining the documents than in stalling the work of the House.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8594627\" data-originallang=\"fr\">We could vote on the motion, which would force the government to take action. If the Liberals do not produce the documents, then they will pay the political price. However, if the idea is that we should stay in the House until someone stands up and hands over the documents, then I have the feeling that we will be here for a very long time.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8594628\" data-originallang=\"fr\">What is the Conservative Party's real goal? Is it to ensure that the House is respected and to obtain the documents, or is it to bring the work of the House to a halt and then claim that the government is not doing anything?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"8594626\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, nous sommes saisis de ce d\u00e9bat depuis tant\u00f4t. Nous avons dit que nous \u00e9tions d'accord sur le fond. Il faut absolument que la Chambre fasse respecter son privil\u00e8ge et qu'on obtienne ces documents. J'\u00e9coute attentivement les d\u00e9bats, que je sois \u00e0 la Chambre ou dans l'antichambre. Ce que je peux constater au fil des \u00e9changes, c'est qu'il semble y avoir une volont\u00e9 du Parti conservateur, pas tellement d'obtenir les documents, mais d'arr\u00eater compl\u00e8tement les travaux parlementaires de la Chambre.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8594627\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Nous pourrions voter sur la motion, ce qui forcerait le gouvernement \u00e0 faire une nouvelle demande. S'il ne donne pas les documents, il en paiera le prix politique. Cependant, si on dit qu'on reste \u00e0 la Chambre jusqu'\u00e0 ce que quelqu'un se l\u00e8ve et donne les documents, j'ai l'impression qu'il n'y aura pas de fin.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8594628\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Quel est le v\u00e9ritable but du Parti conservateur? Est-ce que c'est de faire respecter la Chambre et d'obtenir les documents, ou est-ce que c'est d'arr\u00eater les travaux de la Chambre et de pr\u00e9tendre ensuite que le gouvernement ne fait rien?</p>"
