This is the government's anti-safe injection site bill. If passed as written, this bill has the potential to undo a decade's worth of stemming the spread of HIV and hepatitis C among injection drug users. Research has clearly demonstrated that harm reduction prevents the spread of HIV-AIDS, and we in the NDP will continue to uphold the rights of individuals to health and well-being.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3917677\" data-originallang=\"en\">On this World AIDS Day, we salute the many organizations and advocates who work tirelessly for a world free of AIDS, both in Canada and globally.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"3917675\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, \u00e0 l'occasion de la Journ\u00e9e mondiale du sida, nous songeons aux innombrables victimes de l'\u00e9pid\u00e9mie du sida tout en rendant hommage aux nombreuses personnes qui ont consacr\u00e9 leur carri\u00e8re au traitement du VIH-sida, comme le Dr Julio Montaner, dont la m\u00e9thode r\u00e9volutionnaire de prise en charge comme moyen de pr\u00e9vention a contribu\u00e9 \u00e0 l'endiguement du VIH-sida dans le monde.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3917676\" data-originallang=\"en\">Il est plut\u00f4t ironique que la Chambre soit \u00e0 nouveau saisie du projet de loi <a data-HoCid=\"6254806\" href=\"/bills/41-2/C-2/\" title=\"An Act to amend the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act\">C-2</a> le jour m\u00eame o\u00f9 nous c\u00e9l\u00e9brons les nombreux progr\u00e8s m\u00e9dicaux r\u00e9alis\u00e9s dans la lutte contre le sida dans le monde. Il s'agit du projet de loi du gouvernement qui s'oppose aux centres d'injection supervis\u00e9e. S'il est adopt\u00e9 sous sa forme actuelle, il risque de d\u00e9faire tous les progr\u00e8s r\u00e9alis\u00e9s depuis une d\u00e9cennie dans la lutte contre la propagation du VIH et de l'h\u00e9patite C parmi les consommateurs de drogues injectables. La recherche d\u00e9montre clairement que la r\u00e9duction des m\u00e9faits pr\u00e9vient la propagation du VIH-sida, et nous, au NPD, continuerons de nous porter \u00e0 la d\u00e9fense des droits des particuliers \u00e0 la sant\u00e9 et au bien-\u00eatre.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"3917677\" data-originallang=\"en\">En cette Journ\u00e9e mondiale du sida, nous saluons les nombreuses organisations et les nombreux d\u00e9fenseurs qui travaillent sans rel\u00e2che dans le but d'an\u00e9antir le sida, autant au Canada que dans le reste du monde.</p>"
