        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8872012\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, after nearly 10 years of fiscal and economic vandalism, the Liberals claimed they were ready to rein in the out-of-control inflationary spending that piles on debt for future generations and drives up the cost of living. However, since the <a data-HoCid=\"314774\" href=\"/politicians/mark-carney/\" title=\"Mark Carney\">Prime Minister</a> took office, federal spending has gone up 8.4% based on the estimates tabled in Parliament. He has boosted consultants by 37%, from $19 billion to $26 billion. He has also boosted the bureaucracy 6%, from $59 billion to $63 billion.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8872013\" data-originallang=\"en\">Justin Trudeau left a deficit of $42 billion, but the <a data-HoCid=\"314774\" href=\"/politicians/mark-carney/\" title=\"Mark Carney\">Prime Minister</a>'s big spending election platform raised it to $62 billion. In July, the Bank of Montreal estimated the deficit could be as high as $80 billion, and in August, the C.D. Howe Institute estimated it as high as $92 billion.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8872014\" data-originallang=\"en\">Food and housing remain unaffordable while unemployment is rising, and the government still has no plan and no budget. The Liberals may have pushed Justin Trudeau out, but the fiscal ineptitude remains.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"8872012\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, apr\u00e8s pr\u00e8s de 10 ans de vandalisme financier et \u00e9conomique, les lib\u00e9raux ont pr\u00e9tendu qu'ils \u00e9taient pr\u00eats \u00e0 freiner les d\u00e9penses incontr\u00f4l\u00e9es et inflationnistes qui alourdissent la dette pour les g\u00e9n\u00e9rations futures et font grimper le co\u00fbt de la vie. Cependant, depuis que le <a data-HoCid=\"314774\" href=\"/politicians/mark-carney/\" title=\"Mark Carney\">premier ministre</a> est arriv\u00e9 au pouvoir, les d\u00e9penses f\u00e9d\u00e9rales ont augment\u00e9 de 8,4 %, selon le budget des d\u00e9penses pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 au Parlement. Il a augment\u00e9 de 37 % les d\u00e9penses li\u00e9es aux consultants, qui sont pass\u00e9es de 19 \u00e0 26 milliards de dollars. Il a aussi augment\u00e9 de 6 % les d\u00e9penses li\u00e9es \u00e0 la bureaucratie, qui sont pass\u00e9es de 59 \u00e0 63 milliards de dollars.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8872013\" data-originallang=\"en\">Justin Trudeau a laiss\u00e9 un d\u00e9ficit de 42 milliards de dollars, mais le programme \u00e9lectoral d\u00e9pensier du <a data-HoCid=\"314774\" href=\"/politicians/mark-carney/\" title=\"Mark Carney\">premier ministre</a> l'a port\u00e9 \u00e0 62 milliards de dollars. En juillet, la Banque de Montr\u00e9al a estim\u00e9 que le d\u00e9ficit pourrait atteindre 80 milliards de dollars, et en ao\u00fbt, l'Institut C.D. Howe l'a plut\u00f4t estim\u00e9 \u00e0 92 milliards de dollars.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8872014\" data-originallang=\"en\">La nourriture et le logement demeurent inabordables alors que le ch\u00f4mage augmente, et le gouvernement n'a toujours pas de plan ni de budget. Les lib\u00e9raux ont peut-\u00eatre expuls\u00e9 Justin Trudeau, mais l'incomp\u00e9tence en mati\u00e8re financi\u00e8re demeure.</p>"
