"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"2510347\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Chair, there are many scenarios that we could engage in. Perhaps the trade agreements could have wording, but it would be difficult to have those words have full and defined meanings. I don't know; I have not been involved before in trade agreement writing.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2510348\" data-originallang=\"en\">However, there are other things we can do. One is to have a meeting of the friendship committee that the member is a part of. The member has been with me on election monitoring in Ukraine. This also, on side visits, engages some of the parliamentarians as well. There are many things that we can do. We are calling this issue forward in the foreign affairs committee as well. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2510349\" data-originallang=\"en\">Some of the other suggestions that have come forward are interesting and should be considered as well. I agree totally, as has been said on all sides of the House, that this is a commitment we all have a part of and one on which we come together politically as one in our effort to have this issue heard. If we make this issue roundly, firmly and vocally, I believe there are people there listening. I believe the president is listening.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"2510347\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le pr\u00e9sident, plusieurs possibilit\u00e9s s'offrent \u00e0 nous. Peut-\u00eatre pourrions-nous ajouter ces mots dans les accords commerciaux, mais il serait difficile de leur donner un v\u00e9ritable sens et de les d\u00e9finir. Je ne sais trop, car je n'ai jamais particip\u00e9 \u00e0 la r\u00e9daction d'un accord commercial.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2510348\" data-originallang=\"en\">Cela dit, nous pouvons faire autre chose. Par exemple, nous pouvons organiser une r\u00e9union du groupe d'amiti\u00e9 dont le d\u00e9put\u00e9 fait partie. La d\u00e9put\u00e9e s'est rendue comme moi en Ukraine pour y observer les \u00e9lections. Certains parlementaires ont aussi particip\u00e9 \u00e0 ce processus dans le cadre de visites non officielles. Nous pouvons faire beaucoup de choses. Nous allons aussi soulever la question au Comit\u00e9 des affaires \u00e9trang\u00e8res. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2510349\" data-originallang=\"en\">Certaines des suggestions qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 formul\u00e9es sont int\u00e9ressantes et devraient aussi \u00eatre envisag\u00e9es. Je conviens parfaitement, comme l'ont dit des d\u00e9put\u00e9s des deux c\u00f4t\u00e9s de la Chambre, qu'il s'agit d'un engagement que nous devons tous prendre et que nous devons tous collaborer politiquement et unir nos forces pour que cette question soit port\u00e9e \u00e0 l'avant-plan. Si nous d\u00e9crions cette situation haut et fort, je crois que les gens seront \u00e0 l'\u00e9coute. Je crois que le pr\u00e9sident sera \u00e0 l'\u00e9coute. </p>"
