Some Canadian politicians rolled through the Cox's Bazar refugee camps to check out what nearly a million Rohingya people are dealing with after they bounced from Myanmar. Senator Salma Ataullahjan and MPs Salma Zahid and Sameer Zuberi spent two days walking around the camps, talking to kids and families who are stuck living in limbo without much hope for the future.

Human Concern International set up the whole trip because most international groups have been backing off while the situation keeps getting worse. A teenage girl told the senator she wants to teach someday but worries her education dreams are completely cooked, and another young guy explained how everyone wants to go home but only if it's actually safe. The women there mentioned human trafficking has become a massive problem because desperate people are easy targets when there's no real protection around.

The Canadian crew promised to bring these stories back to Parliament and push for better support beyond just keeping people alive in the camps.
