"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8433141\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for her question, since it gives me an opportunity to talk about budget 2024, in which we reinvested $31 million in festivals. The Fringe Festival should also benefit from that.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8433142\" data-originallang=\"fr\">We know how important culture is to all communities across Canada, especially after the pandemic. Festivals are truly fantastic occasions for communities to come together to share cultural events that bring people closer and tell Canadian stories.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8433143\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Unfortunately, the Conservatives will vote against that in budget 2024, just as they will vote against all other support for the cultural community across the country.</p>",

Le festival Fringe va normalement en b\u00e9n\u00e9ficier.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8433142\" data-originallang=\"fr\">On sait l'importance que la culture a pour toutes les communaut\u00e9s partout au Canada, surtout apr\u00e8s la pand\u00e9mie. Les festivals sont des lieux absolument extraordinaires pour rapprocher les communaut\u00e9s et leur faire partager un \u00e9v\u00e9nement culturel qui les rapproche et qui raconte les histoires canadiennes.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8433143\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Malheureusement, les conservateurs vont voter contre \u00e7a dans le budget de 2024, tout comme ils vont voter contre tous les autres soutiens pour la communaut\u00e9 culturelle partout au pays.</p>"
