        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"9416998\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, my colleague mentioned that we have not consulted with the Privacy Commissioner. I want to mention that this is the wrong information, and I believe that my colleague was misinformed before her speech. The Privacy Commissioner said at the committee, \u201cI would not say that we were not consulted in this instance. We made a number of recommendations. A number of them were taken and I've highlighted those improvements\u201d. He said that during his witness testimony. I would also like to highlight that the government did its due diligence by getting the Privacy Commissioner's input for that bill.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9416999\" data-originallang=\"en\">I also want to mention that, as a Liberal member on the committee, we would like to work with the opposition party members to improve the bill and work on the amendments. However, we heard 10 hours of witness testimonies, plus three hours with the officials. We had over 40 briefs and lots of witnesses on that study. Filibustering, unfortunately, is not allowing us to move on the amendments. The amendments are on the table. We would like to continue with the amendments and working on them, but the Conservatives are not allowing us to.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"9416998\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, ma coll\u00e8gue a mentionn\u00e9 que nous n'avions pas consult\u00e9 le commissaire \u00e0 la protection de la vie priv\u00e9e. Je souhaite mentionner que cette information est fausse, et je crois que ma coll\u00e8gue a \u00e9t\u00e9 mal renseign\u00e9e avant son discours. Le commissaire \u00e0 la protection de la vie priv\u00e9e a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 au comit\u00e9: \u00ab Je ne dirais pas que nous n'avons pas \u00e9t\u00e9 consult\u00e9s dans ce cas\u2011ci. Nous avons formul\u00e9 un certain nombre de recommandations, dont certaines ont \u00e9t\u00e9 adopt\u00e9es, et j'ai soulign\u00e9 ces am\u00e9liorations [\u2026] \u00bb. C'est ce qu'il a dit lors de son t\u00e9moignage. Je tiens \u00e9galement \u00e0 souligner que le gouvernement a fait preuve de diligence raisonnable en recueillant les commentaires du commissaire \u00e0 la protection de la vie priv\u00e9e au sujet de ce projet de loi.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9416999\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aimerais ajouter que, en tant que membre lib\u00e9rale du comit\u00e9, je sais que nous voulons travailler avec les d\u00e9put\u00e9s des partis de l'opposition pour am\u00e9liorer le projet de loi et examiner les amendements. Cependant, nous avons entendu 10 heures de t\u00e9moignages, sans compter les 3 heures avec les fonctionnaires. Nous avons re\u00e7u plus de 40 m\u00e9moires et entendu de nombreux t\u00e9moins dans le cadre de cette \u00e9tude. Malheureusement, les tactiques d'obstruction nous emp\u00eachent de poursuivre l'\u00e9tude des amendements. Les amendements sont l\u00e0, et nous aimerions continuer de les examiner, mais les conservateurs ne nous le permettent pas.</p>"
