"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4559105\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, the motion of the member before this place is very thoroughly written and very thoughtful. It is encouraging that a member of the Conservative Party is calling for action by the government in response to a call for action by the United Nations. That is a refreshing shift from the stance her party previously took while in government.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4559106\" data-originallang=\"en\">The member also raised the issue about the trafficking in women, women who have been trafficked for sexual purposes. Has she also reached out to organizations such as ACT Alberta, which has been doing incredible work across the country on trafficking, and considered whether or not we might connect with them if we bring Yazidi women here?</p>",

Il est encourageant de voir qu\u2019une d\u00e9put\u00e9e du Parti conservateur demande au gouvernement d\u2019agir en r\u00e9ponse \u00e0 un appel \u00e0 l\u2019action lanc\u00e9 par les Nations unies. Il s\u2019agit d\u2019un changement de cap encourageant par rapport \u00e0 la position adopt\u00e9e par son parti lorsqu\u2019il \u00e9tait au pouvoir.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4559106\" data-originallang=\"en\"> La d\u00e9put\u00e9e a aussi soulev\u00e9 la question de la traite des femmes, des femmes qui sont exploit\u00e9es \u00e0 des fins sexuelles. A-t-elle aussi fait appel \u00e0 des organisations comme ACT Alberta, qui a fait un travail incroyable au pays relativement \u00e0 cette question, et envisag\u00e9 d\u2019avoir recours \u00e0 ses services si nous accueillons des femmes y\u00e9zidies ici au Canada?</p>"
