"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5626368\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, the Manitoba Sikh society, for 50 years, now has been meeting the spiritual needs of the people of Sikh faith from Winnipeg North and beyond. Personally, I have been visiting the Sikh society gurdwara since 1988. The warmth, generosity, kindness and friendship I have witnessed first-hand is one of the reasons I am still in politics today. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5626369\" data-originallang=\"en\">The Sikh Society of Manitoba has done much more than just meet the spiritual needs of its congregation. It plays a critical role in advocating diversity, promoting cultural awareness and harmony. The gurdwara is responsible in many ways for not only supporting the growth of the community, but also ensuring a better understanding of Sikhism in the general population. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5626370\" data-originallang=\"en\">I want to take this opportunity to thank the past and current leaders of the Sikh Society of Manitoba. The society continues to build a better environment that goes far beyond north end Winnipeg. </p>",

Pour ma part, depuis 1988, je me rends r\u00e9guli\u00e8rement au gurdwara sikh. Si je suis toujours en politique aujourd'hui, c'est en partie en raison de la bienveillance, de la g\u00e9n\u00e9rosit\u00e9, de la gentillesse et de l'amiti\u00e9 dont j'ai \u00e9t\u00e9 t\u00e9moin.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5626369\" data-originallang=\"en\">La Sikh Society of Manitoba ne fait pas que r\u00e9pondre aux besoins spirituels de sa congr\u00e9gation. Elle joue un r\u00f4le essentiel dans la promotion de la diversit\u00e9, la sensibilisation culturelle et le maintien de l'harmonie. Le gurdwara est responsable \u00e0 bien des \u00e9gards non seulement de favoriser la croissance de la communaut\u00e9, mais \u00e9galement de sensibiliser la population en g\u00e9n\u00e9ral au sikhisme.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5626370\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je tiens \u00e0 profiter de cette occasion pour remercier les leaders pass\u00e9s et actuels de la Sikh Society of Manitoba. Elle continue de b\u00e2tir un environnement plus sain dont les retomb\u00e9es d\u00e9passent les fronti\u00e8res du nord de Winnipeg.</p>"
