"en": "<p data-HoCid=\"8328131\" data-originallang=\"en\">Mr. Speaker, my riding of Vancouver Granville is a microcosm of Canada. We are diverse in faith and background, and we are united as Canadians.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8328132\" data-originallang=\"en\">Recently, I attended an interfaith dinner, hosted by the Foundation for a Path Forward and the South Vancouver Neighbourhood House. It left me with a full heart and full of hope for what we can do together.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8328133\" data-originallang=\"en\">With the theme of \u201cbreaking bread and building bonds\u201d, Vancouver's faith leaders, politicians and community leaders sat together, broke bread and found common cause. This is an example for all of us in that, despite the challenges we see in our world every day, such as war, uncertainty and hate, we must never waver in our commitment to foster pluralism, understanding and empathy across our differences.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8328134\" data-originallang=\"en\">It is incumbent upon all of us to heed the lessons of that evening and redouble our efforts to build bridges of co-operation and mutual respect, as well as to draw inspiration from and to reaffirm our shared values of courage, strength and compassion.</p>",

Cet \u00e9v\u00e9nement m'a fait chaud au c\u0153ur et m'a donn\u00e9 l'espoir que nous pouvons faire de grandes choses ensemble.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8328133\" data-originallang=\"en\">Sous le \u00ab rompre le pain et tisser des liens \u00bb, les dirigeants religieux, les politiciens et les dirigeants communautaires de Vancouver se sont r\u00e9unis, ont rompu le pain et ont trouv\u00e9 une cause commune. C'est un exemple pour nous tous, car, en d\u00e9pit des d\u00e9fis que nous voyons dans notre monde chaque jour, comme la guerre, l'incertitude et la haine, nous ne devons jamais fl\u00e9chir dans notre engagement \u00e0 favoriser le pluralisme, la compr\u00e9hension et l'empathie malgr\u00e9 nos diff\u00e9rences.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8328134\" data-originallang=\"en\">Il nous incombe \u00e0 tous de tirer des le\u00e7ons de cette soir\u00e9e et de redoubler d'efforts pour favoriser la coop\u00e9ration et le respect mutuel, de nous inspirer de nos valeurs communes de courage, de force et de compassion et de les r\u00e9affirmer.</p>"
