In my riding of Chatham-Kent\u2014Essex there is a refugee family that came from Colombia about 10 years ago. Yaneth, who was a prosecuting attorney, was driven out of her country by the corruption. I know that she was so pleased to meet with the Colombian president. I want to tell the House how thrilled she is about the prospects. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1603809\" data-originallang=\"en\">What does the member see as the future for law-abiding people in Colombia? What can they expect with this new agreement?</p>",

Dans ma circonscription, Chatham-Kent\u2014Essex, il y a une famille de r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s qui est venue de Colombie il y a environ 10 ans. Yaneth, qui occupait un poste de procureur dans son pays, en a \u00e9t\u00e9 expuls\u00e9e par la corruption. Je sais qu'elle a \u00e9t\u00e9 ravie de rencontrer le pr\u00e9sident colombien. Je tiens \u00e0 dire \u00e0 la Chambre combien toutes ces perspectives l'excitent. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1603809\" data-originallang=\"en\">Comment le d\u00e9put\u00e9 envisage-t-il l'avenir des citoyens respectueux de la loi en Colombie? Que peuvent-ils attendre de cette nouvelle entente?</p>"
