Ivanhoe Mines is a Canadian Company, which is in partnership with
Burma’s military dictatorship, one of the world’s most brutal regimes.
Ivanhoe’s Monywa Copper Mine is the largest foreign mining investment in
Burma today. In partnering with the military junta, the Monywa mine is
poised to become a massive income generator for Burma’s military regime.
The regime earns royalties and rent from Ivanhoe.

Burma’s military regime has been systematically using forced labour
countrywide on infrastructure projects - many of which are then utilized
by foreign companies. Because forced labour is so prevalently used by
the military regime in Burma, it’s impossible to do business there
without perpetuating this abuse.

The International Labour Organization took the strongest action it has
ever taken against a member country - against Burma. The ILO called on
its members - which include Canada - to impose sanctions against Burma.

Join the call for human rights and democracy in Burma.
