Traduction de «without a look and they frisked my brain » (Anglais → Français) :

In the last session of Parliament when this bill was before the Legal and Constitutional Affairs Committee, it is my recollection — and you may have a clearer fix on this than I do, without notes and just counting on my memory — that Corrections Canada told us that they had looked into the question I just asked you, how many inmates would have been affected, and they said that something like four or five people over the past five years would have been captured by this bill.
Au cours de la dernière session, lorsque ce projet de loi a été examiné par le Comité des affaires juridiques et constitutionnelles, je crois me souvenir — mais vous devez en savoir plus que moi à ce sujet — que le Service correctionnel du Canada nous avait dit qu'il avait étudié la question de savoir combien de détenus seraient touchés et avait déterminé que le projet de loi aurait eu des conséquences pour quatre ou cinq personnes dans les cinq dernières années.

I ask my friend from Edmonton what, from her experience, and that of the first nations people who she has spoken to, the chiefs and educators, the sentiment is like on the ground for those who have worked so hard to achieve results under difficult circumstances when they now look at this act and the way that this act is being brought in by the government, and the details in there, the unilateral control and power that rests with the minister, who has made himself the minister of first nations education that the panel established but without any true, joint consultative process?
La députée d'Edmonton pourrait-elle me dire — en se fondant sur son expérience et sur celle des membres, des chefs et des éducateurs des Premières Nations auxquels elle a parlé — comment se sentent ceux qui ont trimé si dur afin d'obtenir de bons résultats malgré les conditions difficiles, quand ils voient ce projet de loi, la façon dont le gouvernement l'a proposé, ses dispositions, le pouvoir unilatéral confié au ministre, qui s'est désigné lui-même ministre de l'Éducation des Premières Nations selon ce qui a été établi par le panel, mais tout cela, sans véritable processus de consultation?

apologize for my English pronunciation, but I must read this poem in the language in which it was written by its author. In reference to those events, including his arrest, Mr. Godin wrote: [English] They followed me, they taped me They spied on me, they tripped me They broke in on me, they fell down on me They hooked me, they trapped me They arrested me without a warrant without a reason, without a word, without a look and they frisked my brain They jailed me, they banned me, they exiled me They laughed at me, they tried to destroy me And there was a big silence around here then There was a sort of continental silence All my friends had left town None of the usual talkers could find his words or his breath None of the usual writers could find his pen or his ink But still I am here tonight and I'm gonna be here for a long long time decades and decades after they'll have disappeared from here I'll be hanging around looking for justice, looking for peace looking after my brothers and sisters [Translation] This is what Mr. Godin wrote following the October 1970 events, and I think we should all reflect on these words.
[Anglais] They followed me, they taped me They spied on me, they tripped me They broke in on me, they fell down on me They hooked me, they trapped me They arrested me without a warrant without a reason, without a word, without a look and they frisked my brain They jailed me, they banned me, they exiled me They laughed at me, they tried to destroy me And there was a big silence around here then There was a sort of continental silence All my friends had left town None of the usual talkers could find his words or his breath None of the usual writers could find his pen or his ink But still I am here tonight and I'm gonna be here for a long long time decades and decades after they'll have disappeared from here I'll be hanging around looking for justice, looking for peace looking after my brothers and sisters [Français] Voilà ce que M. Godin disait, suite aux événements de 1970, ce qui devrait faire réfléchir l'ensemble de cette Chambre.

As an MEP, I feel that I represent those in the section of the population of my country: without necessarily being citizens of Greece or of Europe, they are bringing up our children, looking after our elderly people, building our houses, staffing our universities, contributing to the insurance system and sending their children to our schools.
En tant que député européen, je pense que je représente cette partie de la population de mon pays qui, sans être nécessairement citoyens grecs ou européens, élèvent nos enfants, prennent soin de nos personnes âgées, construisent nos maisons, pourvoient nos universités en personnel, contribuent au système d'assurance et envoient leurs enfants dans nos écoles.

I hope my colleagues opposite will stop using this expression and this program in an attempt to claim they hold the key to the truth. I hope that, finally, they will stop and look, open their eyes and their heart, and admit that, without such programs, women, aboriginal peoples, members of visible minorities and other inadequately represented groups would not be given favourable treatment.
J'espère que, finalement, ils s'arrêteront, regarderont et s'ouvriront les yeux et le coeur et admettront que sans de tels programmes, les femmes, les autochtones, les minorités visibles et d'autres groupes sous-représentés ne seraient pas traités de façon favorable.

I encourage every single one of the Liberals and my fellow opposition members to go ahead and threaten the unemployed with a full time job that pays them a decent salary, that gives them proper labour standards, that gives them the opportunity to look after their families and live in their communities without being forced to abandon their homes like they do in Catalina or Burgeo or up in Canso, Nova Scotia.
J'encourage tous les libéraux ici présents ainsi que mes collègues de l'opposition à menacer les chômeurs d'un emploi à plein temps, qui leur paie un salaire décent, qui leur offre de bonnes conditions de travail, qui leur donne la possibilité de subvenir aux besoins de leurs familles et de vivre dans leurs communautés, sans être forcés d'abandonner leurs maisons comme le font les citoyens de Catalina, de Burgeo ou de Canso, en Nouvelle-Écosse.
