Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland says Canada needs to look into bringing Rohingya refugees here to reunify families. She said the trip has left her "more convinced than ever of the necessity of a comprehensive, international response to this tragedy." A report from Bob Rae, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s special envoy on the Rohingya crisis, recommends Canada take a lead role in efforts to address it. Freeland also spoke of the importance of establishing accountability for the human rights violations occurring in Myanmar and developing an international response to the crisis. In his final report, he suggested Canada should ramp up humanitarian aid, development efforts and show a willingness to welcome refugees.
