"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"2043443\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, it is tremendously important that we address the issue of violence against aboriginal women. That is why we announced in the last budget $10 million specifically for that. That will be rolling out shortly. We also invested $30 million to fund a network of women's shelters. We have added five new shelters to the network across Canada.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2043444\" data-originallang=\"en\">Of course, there is more to be done and all of us need to be conscious of the need to be sensitive to the situation, which is why we should do things like pass the matrimonial real property rights legislation because that will allow aboriginal women to have the rights that every other Canadian takes for granted.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"2043443\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, il est extr\u00eamement important de s'attaquer \u00e0 la violence faite aux femmes autochtones. C'est pourquoi 10 millions de dollars ont pr\u00e9cis\u00e9ment \u00e9t\u00e9 pr\u00e9vus \u00e0 cette fin dans le dernier budget. Cette somme sera bient\u00f4t distribu\u00e9e. Nous avons aussi investi 30 millions de dollars dans le financement d'un r\u00e9seau de refuges pour femmes. Nous avons ajout\u00e9 cinq nouveaux refuges au r\u00e9seau \u00e0 divers endroits au pays. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2043444\" data-originallang=\"en\">Bien entendu, il faut faire plus et nous devons tous \u00eatre conscients qu'il faut \u00eatre sensible \u00e0 cette situation. C'est pourquoi nous devrions par exemple adopter la loi sur les droits relatifs aux biens immobiliers matrimoniaux, qui permettrait aux femmes autochtones de b\u00e9n\u00e9ficier des m\u00eames droits que tous les autres Canadiens tiennent pour acquis. </p>"
