It’s time the Canadian left supported the thousands of Haitians risking their lives for the restoration of democracy. It’s the least we can do after all our troops and media have done.

 
Shame On Us

By Yves Engler

Five months ago the Liberal government sent troops to a foreign country without the legally elected host government’s permission. Since February 29th Haiti has been occupied by foreign troops and a pro-U.S. government has been installed. The Canadian media, and the rest of us, have been nearly silent. At the end of February Haiti was front-page news. The Globe and Mail’s Paul Knox was there and Canwest’s eleven daily papers ran stories from the Montreal Gazette’s once progressive Sue Montgomery.

CMAQ: Vie associative


Collectif à Québec: n'existe plus.

Impliquez-vous !

 

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
