"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8777166\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Mr. Speaker, there is an epidemic on this side of the aisle. It is called \u201cwhataboutism\u201d. The Liberals refuse to accept accountability or responsibility for anything. Quite frankly, I do not care if the contamination can be traced back to John A. Macdonald. The fact is, over the last nine years, the government knew about it and did nothing.</p>",

C'est une v\u00e9ritable \u00e9pid\u00e9mie. Les lib\u00e9raux refusent d'assumer la responsabilit\u00e9 de quoi que ce soit. Franchement, je me fiche de savoir si la contamination remonte \u00e0 John A. Macdonald. Ce qui compte pour moi, c'est que le gouvernement est au courant de cette situation depuis neuf ans et n'a rien fait pour y rem\u00e9dier.</p>"
