Mr. Speaker, it is with great honour that I would like to table e-petition 1282 in the House of Commons. The Canadian rapporteur on Myanmar reported back to Canada on the horrific humanitarian conditions faced by the Rohingya people, where there is clear evidence to support that crimes against humanity have been committed. Alongside thousands of Canadians, we call on the government to make a commitment to support the Rohingya people and to pressure Myanmar to stop the violence and ensure that those responsible for violations are held to account.
In the House of Commons on June 20th, 2018. See this statement in context.
