"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"9180135\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I find it interesting that the Conservatives are not standing up to ask questions of the member. I think it is because the member has really nailed the issue.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9180136\" data-originallang=\"en\">The Conservative Party, particularly the leadership of the Conservative Party, has made the determination to take a very important issue that Canadians are concerned about, health care, and then tie it to the issue of refugees. They are trying to give this false impression that it is because of refugees that we have problems with health care. It is feeding to that far right. I am wondering if the member could amplify that particularly disrespectful way of dealing with the politics of rage.</p>",

Je pense que c'est parce que le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a vraiment vu juste.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9180136\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le Parti conservateur, en particulier ses dirigeants, a d\u00e9cid\u00e9 de faire un lien entre un enjeu crucial qui pr\u00e9occupe les Canadiens, \u00e0 savoir les soins de sant\u00e9, et la question des r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s. Il essaie de faire croire que c'est \u00e0 cause des r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s que le syst\u00e8me de sant\u00e9 \u00e9prouve des difficult\u00e9s. Il le fait pour plaire \u00e0 l'extr\u00eame droite. Je me demande si le d\u00e9put\u00e9 pourrait nous en dire plus sur cette fa\u00e7on particuli\u00e8rement irrespectueuse de chercher \u00e0 attiser la rage.</p>"
