"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8682309\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Mr. Speaker, Berens River First Nation still does not have clean drinking water. The water treatment plant is over a year behind schedule, and the community has been forced to haul water over 300 kilometres by truck every time, costing thousands of dollars. The lack of clean water has had an impact on dialysis patients, the health of children, elders and the whole community. However, the Liberals are not keeping on top of the contractor who has not gotten the job done. They are not funding the equipment the first nation has asked for. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8682310\" data-originallang=\"en\">Once again, the Liberals are failing first nations on clean water. What are they going to do to deliver clean water to Berens River now?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"8682309\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, la Premi\u00e8re Nation de Berens River n'a toujours pas d'eau potable. La construction de l'usine de traitement des eaux a plus d'un an de retard, et la communaut\u00e9 est oblig\u00e9e de transporter l'eau sur plus de 300 kilom\u00e8tres par camion, ce qui co\u00fbte chaque fois des milliers de dollars. Le manque d'eau potable a eu des r\u00e9percussions sur les patients qui subissent des dialyses, la sant\u00e9 des enfants et des a\u00een\u00e9s ainsi que l'ensemble de la population. Cependant, les lib\u00e9raux ne demandent pas \u00e0 l'entrepreneur qui n'a pas fait le travail de rendre des comptes. Ils ne financent pas l'\u00e9quipement que la Premi\u00e8re Nation a demand\u00e9.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8682310\" data-originallang=\"en\">Une fois de plus, les lib\u00e9raux laissent tomber les Premi\u00e8res Nations qui ont besoin d'eau potable. Que vont-ils faire maintenant pour approvisionner Berens River en eau potable?</p>"
