"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"2995081\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, we have put a lot of emphasis on the importance of victims, and justifiably so. There are many victims of violence who are looking to the government to do what it can to ensure that there is some form of assistance available, either directly or indirectly.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2995082\" data-originallang=\"en\">We do not necessarily believe that it is just the surcharges that are there to support victims but also that the government has a role to play in terms of direct assistance.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2995083\" data-originallang=\"en\">I am wondering if my colleague could provide some thoughts on the importance of the government coming to the table to support victim support groups or victim services agencies?</p>",

En effet, nous sommes d'avis que le gouvernement a un r\u00f4le \u00e0 jouer sur le plan de l'aide directe.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2995083\" data-originallang=\"en\">Est-ce que ma coll\u00e8gue pourrait nous dire \u00e0 quel point il est important que le gouvernement appuie les groupes d'aide aux victimes et les organismes qui offrent des services aux victimes?</p>"
