"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4026725\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, at no time have we ever said that we were going to get involved in the Syrian civil war. That war would require a much different approach.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4026726\" data-originallang=\"en\">What we are dealing with in the motion in front of us today is the expansion and extension of our mission against ISIL. Whereas ISIL was in Iraq, it has moved some of its assets and bases farther into Syria, so we are joining our allies to also move into Syria. There are more than 60 partners with whom we are working. We are joining the U.S., Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Morocco, and the United Arab Emirates, who are already conducting strikes in Syria. It is important that we join those partners in fighting against ISIL.</p>",

Une telle intervention n\u00e9cessiterait une approche compl\u00e8tement diff\u00e9rente.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4026726\" data-originallang=\"en\">La motion dont nous sommes saisis aujourd'hui porte sur l'\u00e9largissement et la prolongation de notre mission contre l'EIIL. L'EIIL \u00e9tait en Irak, mais il a install\u00e9 certaines de ses bases et ressources en Syrie. Nous nous joignons donc \u00e0 nos alli\u00e9s, au nombre de plus de 60, pour intervenir en Syrie. Nous collaborons entre autres avec les \u00c9tats-Unis, la Jordanie, l'Arabie saoudite, Bahre\u00efn, le Maroc et les \u00c9mirats arabes unis, qui effectuent d\u00e9j\u00e0 des frappes en Syrie. Il est important que nous nous joignions \u00e0 ces partenaires dans la lutte contre l'EIIL.</p>"
