We know that the unemployment rate is the second highest. We know that Canadians are already struggling to put food on their tables and take care of their families. Now we know that the <a data-HoCid=\"314774\" href=\"/politicians/mark-carney/\" title=\"Mark Carney\">Prime Minister</a> went to the United States of America and promised that he would drive another $1 trillion of investment south of the border, therefore putting Canadian families at a disadvantage, because they will not have jobs.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8906519\" data-originallang=\"en\">What will the <a data-HoCid=\"314774\" href=\"/politicians/mark-carney/\" title=\"Mark Carney\">Prime Minister</a> do to put his elbows up and stand up for them?</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"8906518\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, certains faits sont irr\u00e9futables. On sait que le Canada est le pays du G7 dont l'\u00e9conomie se contracte le plus rapidement. On sait que le taux de ch\u00f4mage est le deuxi\u00e8me en importance. On sait que les Canadiens ont d\u00e9j\u00e0 du mal \u00e0 mettre du pain sur la table et \u00e0 subvenir aux besoins de leur famille. On sait maintenant que, quand le <a data-HoCid=\"314774\" href=\"/politicians/mark-carney/\" title=\"Mark Carney\">premier ministre</a> est all\u00e9 aux \u00c9tats\u2011Unis, il a promis qu'il allait envoyer 1 billion de dollars en investissements additionnels au sud de la fronti\u00e8re, ce qui nuira aux familles canadiennes, car elles seront au ch\u00f4mage.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8906519\" data-originallang=\"en\">Que fera le <a data-HoCid=\"314774\" href=\"/politicians/mark-carney/\" title=\"Mark Carney\">premier ministre</a> pour jouer du coude afin de d\u00e9fendre leurs int\u00e9r\u00eats?</p>"
