Public forum:CATASTROPHE IN HAITI

Haiti needs solidarity to rise from the ashes.

The catastrophe of the January 12th earthquake has been magnified by Haiti's social and political history. Decades of foreign interference, including Canada's involvement in the overthrow of Haiti's elected government in 2004, left the country devoid of social and emergency infrastructure. Now the United States is orchestrating a full-scale militarization of relief efforts.

As Canadians join in urgent relief efforts, how can we ensure genuine aid for Haiti's future? Join us for a discussion with Stuart Hammond, who returned from a human rights delegation to Haiti just four days before the earthquake, and other recent visitors.
