"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"2373207\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Mr. Speaker, today marks the 100th anniversary of International Women's Day. I would like to congratulate the women of my riding, Laval\u2014Les \u00celes, the women of Canada and women around the world who fight for equality, peace and liberty. The world has witnessed the strength of their vision and their tenacity. Women are standing up, side by side, against authoritarian governments in places like Egypt, Yemen, Tunisia and now Libya.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2373208\" data-originallang=\"fr\">The message is clear: one century later, women are fed up. They are demanding that governments meet their millennium development goals immediately.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2373209\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Here in Canada, a century later, this is what women are telling the Conservative government: stop cutting funding to NGOs that provide assistance to women and children; advance the rights of women and girls by approving safe reproductive rights; protect women and enable them to retain their dignity by supporting safe abortion practices, especially in cases of violence and rape.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2373210\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Equality means dignity.</p>",

Je f\u00e9licite les femmes de ma circonscription, Laval\u2014Les \u00celes, du Canada et du monde entier qui luttent pour l'\u00e9galit\u00e9, la paix et la libert\u00e9. Le monde est t\u00e9moin de la force de leur vision et de leur t\u00e9nacit\u00e9. Les femmes se tiennent debout ensemble devant les gouvernements autoritaires de l'\u00c9gypte, du Y\u00e9men, de la Tunisie et maintenant de la Libye.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2373208\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Le message est clair: un si\u00e8cle plus tard, les femmes en ont assez. Elles exigent que les gouvernements atteignent leurs objectifs du mill\u00e9naire pour le d\u00e9veloppement, et ce, d\u00e8s maintenant. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2373209\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Au Canada, un si\u00e8cle plus tard, les femmes disent au gouvernement conservateur: cessez de couper les subventions aux ONG qui fournissent une aide aux femmes et aux enfants; faites progresser les droits des femmes et des filles en sanctionnant les droits li\u00e9s \u00e0 la procr\u00e9ation s\u00e9curitaire; prot\u00e9gez les femmes et permettez-leur de retrouver la dignit\u00e9 en appuyant des avortements s\u00e9curitaires, notamment pour les cas de violence et de viol.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2373210\" data-originallang=\"fr\">L'\u00e9galit\u00e9, c'est la dignit\u00e9.</p>"
