"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5695734\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, today is the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. The date of November 29 was chosen by the United Nations in 1977 because of its meaning and significance to the Palestinian people.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5695735\" data-originallang=\"en\">Even after 71 years, we still have several generations of our Palestinian brothers and sisters living in refugee camps. Our government has restored funding to the agencies involved with helping women and children. We have taken a firm stand on the issue of Jerusalem. However, I am first to acknowledge that there is lot to be done. We do not have peace in sight.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5695736\" data-originallang=\"en\">Canada recognizes the Palestinian right to self-determination and supports the creation of a sovereign, independent, viable, democratic and territorially contiguous Palestinian state as part of a comprehensive, just and lasting peace settlement.</p>",

La date du 29 novembre a \u00e9t\u00e9 choisie par les Nations unies en 1977 en raison de l'importance qu'elle rev\u00eat pour le peuple palestinien.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5695735\" data-originallang=\"en\">Bien que 71 ans se soient \u00e9coul\u00e9s, plusieurs g\u00e9n\u00e9rations de nos fr\u00e8res et soeurs palestiniens vivent toujours dans des camps de r\u00e9fugi\u00e9s. Le gouvernement lib\u00e9ral a r\u00e9tabli le financement accord\u00e9 aux organismes qui aident les femmes et les enfants. Nous avons adopt\u00e9 une position ferme \u00e0 propos de J\u00e9rusalem. Je serai toutefois le premier \u00e0 admettre qu'il reste beaucoup \u00e0 faire. Il n'y a toujours pas de paix \u00e0 l'horizon.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5695736\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Le Canada reconna\u00eet le droit des Palestiniens \u00e0 s'autod\u00e9terminer et appuie la cr\u00e9ation d'un \u00c9tat palestinien souverain, ind\u00e9pendant, viable, d\u00e9mocratique et dot\u00e9 d'un territoire d'un seul tenant, dans le cadre d'un r\u00e8glement de paix global, juste et durable. </p>"
