Thank you, Chair.
Thanks, Mr. Milner, for being here today.
I read with interest your comments on iPolitics this January about the situation facing the Rohingya in Myanmar. Specifically, they were about how the past influx of Rohingya into Bangladesh, followed by pressured or forced repatriation to Myanmar without ensuring their safety and addressing the root causes of that issue, has subsequently led to a large-scale issue. It appears that this cycle may repeat itself. I certainly oppose an involuntary return and believe that in addition to safety, the issue of citizenship and the rights that come with it must also be addressed. That's a very big issue.
Could you address what needs to be part of a voluntary and lasting return for the Rohingya, and what Canada and our allies should do to encourage it?
