"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8946234\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Mr. Speaker, obviously, it is the oldest trick of the Liberals. Every time we question them about something they do, they turn it into trying to divide Canadians further, calling us names and trying to narrow the conversation to their level of non-transparency. Unfortunately, that is what they have done here. This is what they have been doing all along. We cannot reject the premises of their questions and their argument because, first and foremost, they have to be transparent and come to Canadians clearly before they can expect anyone to co-operate with them.</p>",

Malheureusement, c'est ce qu'ils font dans ce cas-ci. C'est ce qu'ils ont toujours fait. Nous ne pouvons pas rejeter les pr\u00e9misses de leurs questions et de leurs arguments, car s'ils veulent obtenir la collaboration de qui que ce soit, ils doivent avant toute chose faire preuve de transparence en informant correctement les Canadiens.</p>"
