        "en": "<p data-HoCid=\"5884876\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, I am pleased to table the Conservative Party's supplementary report for the study on systems of shelters and transition houses serving women and children affected by violence.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884877\" data-originallang=\"en\">The Conservatives are focused on providing a compassionate and determined effort to address the horrific tragedy of gender-based violence with appropriate government policy. While shelters do, in fact, play a very key role in helping women flee abusive relationships and start the process toward wholeness and healing, shelters do not offer a permanent solution, and this should be noted. It is therefore unfair to these women for the current government to pretend there is no need for further assistance in the form of stable housing following time at a shelter. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884878\" data-originallang=\"en\">While the Liberals would like to keep women dependent on the government, the Conservatives believe that women are powerful, intelligent and free to make their own choices and succeed in the world. We believe women should be granted the opportunity to live autonomous lives, while they enjoy the stability of a permanent home.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884879\" data-originallang=\"en\"> For this reason, we outlined the importance of giving women this opportunity to move along the entire housing spectrum, including home ownership, which the government is trying to keep out of their grasp.</p>",
        "fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"5884876\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, je suis heureuse de d\u00e9poser le rapport suppl\u00e9mentaire des conservateurs sur l'\u00e9tude du r\u00e9seau de refuges et de maisons de transition qui desservent les femmes et leurs enfants affect\u00e9s par la violence. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884877\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Les conservateurs souhaitent r\u00e9solument s'attaquer au terrible fl\u00e9au de la violence fond\u00e9e sur le sexe en mettant de l'avant une politique gouvernementale appropri\u00e9e et humaine. Les refuges jouent un r\u00f4le essentiel, car ils permettent aux femmes d'\u00e9chapper \u00e0 une relation violente et d'amorcer un processus qui m\u00e8ne \u00e0 la gu\u00e9rison et \u00e0 l'\u00e9panouissement. N\u00e9anmoins, il convient de souligner qu'ils ne repr\u00e9sentent pas une solution permanente. Le gouvernement actuel se comporte donc de fa\u00e7on injuste envers ces femmes lorsqu'il pr\u00e9tend qu'elles n'ont pas besoin d'une aide suppl\u00e9mentaire, qui peut prendre la forme d'un logement stable \u00e0 leur sortie d'un refuge. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884878\" data-originallang=\"en\">Alors que les lib\u00e9raux souhaitent entretenir la d\u00e9pendance des femmes envers le gouvernement, les conservateurs croient plut\u00f4t que les femmes sont fortes, intelligentes et capables de prendre librement des d\u00e9cisions qui leur permettent de r\u00e9ussir dans la vie. Nous sommes d'avis que les femmes devraient avoir la possibilit\u00e9 de mener une vie autonome et de b\u00e9n\u00e9ficier de la stabilit\u00e9 qu'offre un foyer permanent. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5884879\" data-originallang=\"en\">C'est pour cette raison que nous avons soulign\u00e9 l'importance de pr\u00e9senter aux femmes toutes les possibilit\u00e9s en mati\u00e8re de logement, y compris l'acc\u00e8s \u00e0 la propri\u00e9t\u00e9 que leur refuse le gouvernement. </p>"
