"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1036922\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, that fact is that the committee did look at what was going on in other countries. One of the countries that was recently attacked of course was the United Kingdom. In the U.K. the police may arrest without warrant persons whom they reasonably suspect are terrorists.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1036923\" data-originallang=\"en\">The maximum time that a person could be held in detention without charge under the power that the U.K. has had since 2000 was from 7 days to 14 days and now it is 28 days. This is quite a bit more than what we have in Canada, but I go back to once again, that Canadians are looking for law enforcement to have the tools to help keep them safe. I will be supporting this. I know members of the government will be supporting this and I know Canadians will be behind them in that.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"1036922\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, le fait est que le comit\u00e9 s'est pench\u00e9 sur les mesures prises \u00e0 l'\u00e9tranger. Le Royaume-Uni est bien \u00e9videmment un des pays ayant r\u00e9cemment \u00e9t\u00e9 cibl\u00e9 par un attentat. Dans ce pays, les agents de police peuvent proc\u00e9der \u00e0 l'arrestation, sans mandat, de personnes qu'ils ont des motifs raisonnables de soup\u00e7onner d'\u00eatre des terroristes.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1036923\" data-originallang=\"en\">Depuis 2000, au Royaume-Uni, la dur\u00e9e maximale pendant laquelle une personne peut \u00eatre gard\u00e9e en d\u00e9tention est pass\u00e9e de 7 \u00e0 14 jours, et elle est maintenant de 28 jours. C'est beaucoup plus long qu'au Canada, mais une fois de plus, je r\u00e9p\u00e8te que les Canadiens veulent que les organismes d'application de la loi aient les outils n\u00e9cessaires pour veiller \u00e0 leur s\u00e9curit\u00e9. J'appuierai cette mesure. Je sais que les d\u00e9put\u00e9s minist\u00e9riels l'appuieront aussi et que cela refl\u00e9tera la volont\u00e9 des Canadiens.</p>"
