"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5755297\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, the federal government has a responsibility to provide Canadians with sustainable, affordable, universal and accessible health care. We have repeatedly heard the <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">Prime Minister</a> declare himself a feminist. Meanwhile, health care providers such as VON Canada worry about their ability to provide quality care to seniors in their homes.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5755298\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Seniors' needs are increasingly complex and require the services of professionals, who are now being forced out of home care into other health sectors because of low pay.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5755299\" data-originallang=\"en\"> The current government could demonstrate commitment to its promises by implementing and funding wage parity for health care providers. Canadian workers, Canadian seniors, Canadian families and indeed Canadian women are worth it. </p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5755297\" data-originallang=\"en\">Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, il incombe au gouvernement f\u00e9d\u00e9ral d'offrir aux Canadiens un r\u00e9gime de soins de sant\u00e9 universel qui est durable, abordable et accessible. \u00c0 maintes reprises, nous avons entendu le <a data-HoCid=\"214296\" href=\"/politicians/justin-trudeau/\" title=\"Justin Trudeau\">premier ministre</a> se dire f\u00e9ministe. Entretemps, les fournisseurs de soins de sant\u00e9 comme VON Canada s'inqui\u00e8tent de ne pas \u00eatre en mesure de fournir des soins \u00e0 domicile de qualit\u00e9 aux personnes \u00e2g\u00e9es. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5755298\" data-originallang=\"en\">De plus en plus, les besoins des a\u00een\u00e9s se complexifient et exigent les services de professionnels, qui sont maintenant forc\u00e9s de quitter le domaine des soins \u00e0 domicile pour d'autres secteurs des soins de sant\u00e9 en raison des salaires insuffisants. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5755299\" data-originallang=\"en\">L'actuel gouvernement pourrait montrer sa d\u00e9termination \u00e0 tenir ses promesses en instaurant et en finan\u00e7ant la parit\u00e9 salariale pour les fournisseurs de soins de sant\u00e9. Les travailleurs, les a\u00een\u00e9s et les familles du Canada, et bien s\u00fbr les femmes du Canada, le m\u00e9ritent bien. </p>"
