efforts for, Honduras and Haiti. Both countries have been at the forefront of
Canadian and American imperialist intervention in the region. In Honduras, the

free market reconstruction of Haiti.

Haiti’s Earthquake Victims in Great Peril
Written by Roger Annis
Source: Canada Haiti Action Network
It’s been eight weeks since the devastating earthquake in Haiti and familiar patterns of interference and neglect by the major powers that dominate the country are firmly entrenched.
Notwithstanding heroic efforts of ordinary Haitian people, Haitian government officials and agencies, and many international organizations, a grave health risk hovers over the people residing in the earthquake zone or who have fled beyond it. Meanwhile, the direction of Haiti’s reconstruction remains entirely undetermined.
