"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"3399630\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, I do respect what the member opposite is suggesting, but there is just a long a list of people who testified, for example, like the executive director of the National Association of Friendship Centres and many others, the Young Women's Christian Association. We had aboriginal woman, after aboriginal woman and the Congress of Aboriginal Peoples. They said that this was needed. The Supreme Court ruled 25 years ago that there was a legislative gap. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3399631\" data-originallang=\"en\">I would suggest for the member to please look at the facts. The facts are that the NDP at this point wants to support people who want catch-all legislation that would solve world poverty, that would end world hunger, that would solve every housing crisis we have ever known. It is not possible. Yes, I would love to come up with a legislative piece that would solve all of that, but in the interim it does not exist. Let us take a step forward and protect the most vulnerable. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3399632\" data-originallang=\"en\">The NDP members will have blood on their hands if they sit there and do nothing. I will not stand for it. I cannot stand for it.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3399630\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je respecte le point de vue du d\u00e9put\u00e9 d'en face, mais le fait demeure que de nombreuses personnes ont t\u00e9moign\u00e9, par exemple, le directeur g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de l'Association nationale des centres d'amiti\u00e9, ainsi que bien d'autres, comme la Young Women's Christian Association. Nous avons entendu des femmes autochtones, les unes apr\u00e8s les autres, ainsi que le Congr\u00e8s des peuples autochtones. Ils nous ont dit qu'ils avaient besoin de ce projet de loi. Il y a 25 ans, la Cour supr\u00eame a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 qu'il existait un vide juridique.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3399631\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'invite le d\u00e9put\u00e9 \u00e0 bien vouloir consid\u00e9rer les faits. \u00c0 ce stade-ci, les faits sont que le NPD appuie ceux qui souhaitent un projet de loi qui r\u00e9glera tout, de la pauvret\u00e9 mondiale \u00e0 la faim dans le monde, en passant par toutes les crises du logement jamais connues. C'est impossible. Oui, j'aimerais pouvoir \u00e9laborer un projet qui solutionnerait tous ces probl\u00e8mes, mais, pour l'instant, c'est impossible. Allons quand m\u00eame de l'avant et prot\u00e9geons les plus vuln\u00e9rables.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3399632\" data-originallang=\"en\">Les d\u00e9put\u00e9s du NPD auront du sang sur les mains s'ils restent l\u00e0 \u00e0 ne rien faire. Je ne le tol\u00e9rerai pas. J'en suis incapable.</p>"
