Sentenced to a slow demise : the plight of Myanmar's Rohingya minority / Hon. Robert D. Nault, chair ; Michael Levitt, chair.: XC11-1/1-421-1E-PDF
"This report begins by placing the persecution of the Rohingya against the backdrop of ethnic and religious repression in Myanmar. It then outlines the historical, widespread discrimination, persecution and violence against the Rohingya by state and non-state actors and the environment of impunity in which they have operated. Next, the report focuses on the situation facing hundreds of thousands internally displaced Rohingya and the Rohingya migrant crisis both caused by inter-ethnic violence in 2012. This report also briefly discusses the capability, capacity and political willingness of Daw Aung San Suu Kyi and her new government to tackle the Rohingya issue, and the role of the Government of Canada in engaging with the Myanmar government. This Report concludes with the Subcommittee's observations"--Introduction, page 6.
