"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"9388831\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Mr. Speaker, the hon. member just came in, and he was not paying attention. He misses the entire point. He is the kind of person who comes in here and starts screaming about people being disloyal for doing their job of holding the Liberals accountable for $20 million. We love Canada. That is not something that they hold a licence on. We love this country. The hon. member, who put on a uniform for this country, knows better, and he should act better.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9388832\" data-originallang=\"en\">I would not say that this project is bad, but I would say that the Liberals have to demonstrate basic due diligence to Canadians. That is their responsibility. Parliament has to make sure that the money was handled properly. If everything was done properly, the government and the company should be able to show that. We invite them to do it. I would welcome them to do that, but they have not.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9388833\" data-originallang=\"en\">With that in mind, I move:</p>\n<blockquote><p data-HoCid=\"9388834\" data-originallang=\"en\"> That the motion be amended by replacing the amount of \u201c$17,968,133,395\u201d with \u201c$17,948,133,395\u201d. </p>\n</blockquote>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"9388831\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, le d\u00e9put\u00e9 vient d'arriver et il ne pr\u00eatait pas attention. Il est compl\u00e8tement \u00e0 c\u00f4t\u00e9 de la plaque. C'est le genre de personne qui vient ici et qui se met \u00e0 crier que les gens sont d\u00e9loyaux parce qu'ils ont fait leur travail en demandant des comptes aux lib\u00e9raux pour 20 millions de dollars. Nous aimons le Canada. Ils n'ont pas des droits exclusifs sur l'amour du Canada. Nous aimons notre pays. Le d\u00e9put\u00e9, qui a rev\u00eatu l'uniforme pour notre pays, le sait tr\u00e8s bien et devrait agir en cons\u00e9quence.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9388832\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je ne dirais pas que ce projet est mauvais, mais je dirais que les lib\u00e9raux doivent faire preuve de diligence raisonnable au nom des Canadiens. C'est leur responsabilit\u00e9. Le Parlement doit s'assurer que l'argent a \u00e9t\u00e9 bien g\u00e9r\u00e9. Si tout a \u00e9t\u00e9 fait correctement, le gouvernement et l'entreprise devraient \u00eatre en mesure de le d\u00e9montrer. Nous les invitons \u00e0 le faire. Je serais heureux qu'ils le fassent, mais ils ne l'ont pas fait.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9388833\" data-originallang=\"en\">Dans cet esprit, je propose:</p>\n<blockquote><p data-HoCid=\"9388834\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Que la motion soit modifi\u00e9e par substitution, au montant de \u00ab 17 968 133 395 $ \u00bb, du montant de \u00ab 17 948 133 395 $ \u00bb. </p>\n</blockquote>"
