"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8848672\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, it is really rich when a member of the old government, purporting to be the new government, stands up and does not accept responsibility or accountability for what went on in the past.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8848673\" data-originallang=\"en\">The Liberals want us to forget about the past. They want us to forget about all the corruption, all the cronyism and all the kleptocracy that went on, where government insiders and well-connected friends and families benefited as a result of the Liberals' being in power, while the people they governed suffered. They continue to suffer.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8848674\" data-originallang=\"en\">People need the money back. They want the money back. There has to be accountability in the government, and that is what we are asking for with the motion.</p>",

Ils veulent qu'on oublie toute la corruption, tout le copinage et toute la kleptocratie qui ont eu lieu, alors que des initi\u00e9s du gouvernement, des amis bien branch\u00e9s et des membres de leurs familles ont profit\u00e9 du fait que les lib\u00e9raux \u00e9taient au pouvoir, tandis que les gens qu'ils gouvernaient vivaient dans la souffrance. Ces gens continuent d'ailleurs de souffrir.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8848674\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les Canadiens veulent \u00eatre rembours\u00e9s. Ils veulent ravoir leur argent. Le gouvernement doit rendre des comptes, et c'est ce que nous demandons dans la motion.</p>"
