The education panel demands that the government codify the right of education. As a right, education cannot be interfered.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2679873\" data-originallang=\"en\">Yesterday, when I asked the minister why he had cut off funding to Attawapiskat students and teachers, he said that it was a fabrication. Does he not even know what is happening on the ground in Attawapiskat?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2679874\" data-originallang=\"en\">Why is he cutting off funding to the school? Why is he targeting children in order to force the band into submission? Is this his idea of putting first nations children first?</p>",

Le panel sur l'\u00e9ducation exige que le gouvernement officialise le droit \u00e0 l'\u00e9ducation. Si l'\u00e9ducation est un droit, on ne pourra faire d'ing\u00e9rence dans son administration.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2679873\" data-originallang=\"en\">Hier, quand j'ai demand\u00e9 au ministre pourquoi il avait r\u00e9duit le financement accord\u00e9 aux enfants et aux enseignants d'Attawapiskat, il a r\u00e9pondu que je divaguais. Se peut-il qu'il ne sache m\u00eame pas ce qui se passe sur place, \u00e0 Attawapiskat?</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2679874\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pourquoi r\u00e9duit-il le financement destin\u00e9 \u00e0 l'\u00e9cole? Pourquoi s'en prend-il aux enfants pour obliger la bande \u00e0 capituler? C'est \u00e7a, pour lui, faire passer les enfants des Premi\u00e8res nations en premier?</p>"
