Vertaling van "peoples were shunted " (Engels → Frans) :

Honourable senators, historically, Aboriginal peoples were shunted aside to pave the way for European settlement and development.
Honorables sénateurs, historiquement, les peuples autochtones ont été mis de côté pour laisser libre cours à la colonisation européenne et au développement.

Not only were they taking away a town, but there were ties involved, the ties between the people of that town and the rest of the population of the riding. Victoriaville-Arthabaska is the queen city of the area which includes Princeville, Daveluyville and Warwick, and it was shunted off towards Sherbrooke, to be attached to Richmond-Wolfe (1550) Such a drawing of electoral boundaries leaves me speechless.
Victoriaville-Arthabaska est la ville reine de Princeville, Daveluyville, Warwick, et on enlevait cette reine-là pour la shooter dans la direction de Sherbrooke, vers Richmond-Wolfe (1550) Quand je vois ça, je ne peux pas faire autrement que rester assis sur mon fauteuil et ne pas dire un mot face à ce découpage de la carte.
