"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"4707518\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I am not quite sure I would describe myself as latching on to my Ukrainian Canadian heritage, but I am a proud Ukrainian Canadian and have been all of my life.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4707519\" data-originallang=\"en\">I am a big fan of the town of Vegreville. I have been there for many festivals and I love the pysanka. I am a big fan of our Ukrainian heritage across the Prairies, as I mentioned, including in Vegreville and cities like Edmonton, where I went to high school and which is another strong and important Ukrainian Canadian city. People in places like Edmonton, Regina, Saskatchewan, Winnipeg, and even Etobicoke would all vie with Vegreville quite proudly for the crown of Canada's Ukrainian capital.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4707520\" data-originallang=\"en\">I do want to reinforce something the hon. member mentioned, which is the cross-party work done on this agreement. I want to take another opportunity to say that we are proud to have done this work in a bipartisan way.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"4707518\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, je ne dirais pas n\u00e9cessairement que je m'accroche \u00e0 mes racines ukrainiennes, mais je suis une fi\u00e8re Canadienne d'origine ukrainienne et je l'ai \u00e9t\u00e9 toute ma vie.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4707519\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aime beaucoup Vegreville. J'y suis all\u00e9e pour de nombreux festivals et j'adore le pysanka. Je suis une grande admiratrice de notre patrimoine ukrainien partout dans les Prairies, notamment \u00e0 Vegreville et dans des villes comme Edmonton, o\u00f9 j'ai fr\u00e9quent\u00e9 l'\u00e9cole secondaire. Voil\u00e0 une autre ville dynamique o\u00f9 habitent de nombreux Canadiens d'origine ukrainienne. Les habitants de villes comme Edmonton, Regina, Saskatchewan, Winnipeg et m\u00eame Etobicoke seraient tous fiers de se disputer le titre, avec les habitants de Vegreville, de capitale ukrainienne au Canada.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4707520\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'aimerais revenir sur quelque chose que le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a mentionn\u00e9, c'est-\u00e0-dire les efforts d\u00e9ploy\u00e9s par tous les partis dans le cadre de cet accord. Je profite de nouveau de l'occasion de d\u00e9clarer que nous sommes fiers d'avoir r\u00e9alis\u00e9 ces travaux de fa\u00e7on bipartisane.</p>"
