"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"1900427\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, Canada-India ties continue to strengthen following the very successful visit to India by a strong delegation led by the <a data-HoCid=\"78738\" href=\"/politicians/stephen-harper/\" title=\"Stephen Harper\">Prime Minister</a> last November. Canada is home to a large Indo Canadian community. Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs, Christians, Buddhists and Jains all contribute immensely to further this relationship.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1900428\" data-originallang=\"en\">India is the world's largest multicultural democracy. It also has a well established legal process. India today is an example of the fruits that co-operation between communities bring. The Government of Canada and Canadians stand strongly behind efforts to strengthen our relationship and in no way will accept, support or encourage any efforts that undermine a strong, united and multicultural India.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1900429\" data-originallang=\"en\">This government strongly condemns the recent threats of violence made by extremists within the Canadian Sikh community. This is unacceptable.</p>",

Le Canada est le pays de r\u00e9sidence d'une importante communaut\u00e9 indo-canadienne. Les hindous, les musulmans, les sikhs, les chr\u00e9tiens, les bouddhistes et les ja\u00efns contribuent tous consid\u00e9rablement \u00e0 renforcer cette relation.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1900428\" data-originallang=\"en\">L'Inde est la plus grande d\u00e9mocratie multiculturelle du monde. Elle jouit \u00e9galement d'un processus juridique bien \u00e9tabli. Aujourd'hui, l'Inde est un exemple du r\u00e9sultat de la coop\u00e9ration entre les communaut\u00e9s. Le gouvernement du Canada et les Canadiens appuient fermement les efforts visant \u00e0 renforcer cette relation et, en aucune fa\u00e7on, n'accepteront, ne soutiendront ni n'encourageront toute initiative visant \u00e0 porter atteinte \u00e0 une Inde forte, unie et multiculturelle.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1900429\" data-originallang=\"en\">Le gouvernement condamne s\u00e9v\u00e8rement les r\u00e9centes menaces de violence lanc\u00e9es par des extr\u00e9mistes au sein de la communaut\u00e9 sikhe canadienne. Cela est inacceptable.</p>"
