"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"6424453\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madam Speaker, my colleague has raised many important issues on how we defend the rights of people with disabilities. I wonder if he can pick up on the issue of giving people alternatives. I was quite struck by the comment from one of his colleagues from B.C., another member of our caucus, who said that people had a right to hope</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6424454\" data-originallang=\"en\">We have to give people access to that right, that ability to hope, to see they have alternatives in front of them. Members who talk about the importance of choice should consider the range of options people have, such as wanting to really have that option of choosing to live and how we can make that option real and meaningful for people who want that available to them.</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"6424453\" data-originallang=\"en\">Madame la Pr\u00e9sidente, le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a soulev\u00e9 plusieurs points importants concernant la d\u00e9fense des droits des personnes handicap\u00e9es. Peut-\u00eatre pourrait-il parler du fait qu'il est important de donner des options aux gens. J'ai \u00e9t\u00e9 frapp\u00e9 par une observation d'une d\u00e9put\u00e9e conservatrice de la Colombie-Britannique, qui a dit que les gens ont le droit d'esp\u00e9rer.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"6424454\" data-originallang=\"en\">Nous devons voir \u00e0 ce que les gens aient acc\u00e8s \u00e0 ce droit et la possibilit\u00e9 d'esp\u00e9rer, et qu'ils aient des options devant eux. Les d\u00e9put\u00e9s qui parlent de l'importance d'offrir un choix devraient r\u00e9fl\u00e9chir \u00e0 la gamme d'options offertes. Je pense par exemple aux personnes qui souhaitent vraiment avoir la possibilit\u00e9 de choisir de vivre et \u00e0 ce que nous pouvons faire pour que cette option soit bien r\u00e9elle et positive pour elles.</p>"
