We have been clear: Our position is still the same.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9233316\" data-originallang=\"fr\">However, during the last election campaign, the Liberals promised to fund 40% of the project. The project is starting now, but the funding has not been confirmed. There is legitimate concern in Quebec City.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9233317\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Can the minister confirm that his government will be there before the tree clearing starts? If 100-year-old trees are cut down and there is no money, what then?</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"9233315\" data-originallang=\"fr\"> Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, il y a une nuance \u00e0 faire: ce n'est pas parce que je lui demande combien il met d'argent que je suis favorable au projet. Nous sommes clairs; nous gardons la m\u00eame position.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9233316\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Par contre, les lib\u00e9raux se sont engag\u00e9s, lors de la derni\u00e8re campagne \u00e9lectorale, \u00e0 financer 40 % du projet. Le projet commence \u00e0 l'heure actuelle, mais le financement n'est pas confirm\u00e9. Il y a une inqui\u00e9tude \u00e0 Qu\u00e9bec qui est l\u00e9gitime.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9233317\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Le ministre peut-il nous confirmer que son gouvernement sera l\u00e0 avant de couper les arbres? Si les arbres centenaires sont coup\u00e9s et qu'il n'y a pas d'argent, que fait-on?</p>"
