That is an encouraging sign. We hear individuals talk about no tolerance with respect to bullying, hate speech, discrimination, and the importance of equal rights.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4555517\" data-originallang=\"en\">Could my colleague across the way provide her thoughts on the significant shift over the years toward a better understanding of equal rights for all?</p>",

C'est un signe encourageant. On entend maintenant des gens militer pour le refus total de l'intimidation, de la propagande haineuse et de la discrimination. Ils soulignent l'importance de reconna\u00eetre \u00e0 tous des droits \u00e9gaux.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4555517\" data-originallang=\"en\">Ma coll\u00e8gue d'en face pourrait-elle nous dire comment elle voit la transformation qui s'est produite au fil des ans et qui fait que les gens comprennent mieux l'id\u00e9e de garantir des droits \u00e9gaux \u00e0 tous?</p>"
