Martin Hosts Another War Criminal: Denounce Haiti Dictator in Montreal

Anonyme, Vendredi, Décembre 10, 2004 - 02:09

Paul Martin, Bush lapdog, hosts Haiti Dictator Gerard Latortue in Montreal this weekend. The co-conspirators speak on Saturday at Centre Mont-Royal, 12:00 PM.

IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUESTED - URGENT ACTION ALERT

On December 10 and 11, 2004 Gerald Latortue and others from the Haitian diaspora with zero credibility with the masses in Haiti will be meeting in Montreal with Canadian Prime Minister, Paul Martin, Foreign Minister Pierre Pettigreww and others to decide the destiny of Haiti. None of the officially designated spokespersons for the Lavalas party nor any credible grassroots peace and justice leaders for Haiti,
abroad or in Haiti, with an active following, are invited.

In fact, it is these participants opinion that "Lavalas is the past" and only those chosen by Canada to attend shall have a say in what is to be done with Haiti and its
nine million people, their culture, domestic economy, group identity andrevolutionary legacy.

The Canadians and internationals are talking, among other things, about putting Haiti under the long term tutelage of foreigners as a "protectorate." Obviously,
with this talk of a "protectorate" the idea of free and fair elections has taken a back seat, perhaps for as long as 10 to 20 years, the numbers being thrown about for
this "protectorate" to be imposed on Haiti's helpless peoples.

We urge our entire network in Canada to write, call and fax Paul Martin and Pierre Pettigrew to denounce this flagrant attempt to further isolate Haiti's poor and
steal their right to choose their own leaders and representatives. Those who live in the U.S. may e-mail Paul Martin and Pierre Pettigrew as follows: pmar...@fin.qc.ca ,pm@pm.qc.ca , pie...@pierrepettigrew.ca , pet...@parl.qc.ca , pett...@parl.qc.ca and Pett...@parl.gc.ca with cc's to: pett...@parl.qc.ca,

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

l. Montreal Conference with the Chalabis of Haiti by Marguerite Laurent, December 6,
2004
2.The Official invitation to the Canadian Conference on Dec. 11-12, 2004
(See also, The Focal paper at: www.focal.ca , (in French & English). This Canadian
Foundation For the America's paper reveals part of the agenda to be discussed: The
Role for Canada in Post-Aristide Haiti: Structures, Options and Leadership!!!)

*

Montreal Conference with the Chalabis of Haiti
by Marguerite Laurent, December 6, 2004

Below is an announcement of a Conference to be held by the Chalabis of Haiti* and
their International sponsors in Canada on December 10 and 11, 2004.

The same Canadian officials, who conspired to destroy Haiti's democracy with the
forceful removal of Haiti's elected government, are currently in the process of
following through with the international community's ultimate plans to place Haiti
under direct occupation with the pretext of an "international protectorate." To that
end, Canadian foreign Minister Pierre Pettigrew is holding a meeting with the
Chalabis of Haiti on December 10-11, 2004 in Montreal. The Government of Canada is
proceeding with its war on the Haitian people in the form of this new conference
ostensibly to be attended by the "leaders in the Haitian community abroad." However,
the leaders in the Haitian community who have credibility with the grassroots
movements for democracy in Haiti are not invited or welcomed to attend this meeting.
Yes! Authorized Lavalas officials and grassroots leaders from Haiti and abroad are
not invited. Thus, this is simply another Canadian attempt, like to Ottawa
Initiative, to further humiliate the people of Haiti.

We at the Haitian Lawyers' Leadership take this opportunity to state that the
Chalabis of Canada, like Gerald Latortue and his "interim government," have
absolutely no popular base in Haiti or abroad.

Nothing shall endow the Chalabis of Haiti with credibility they do not own. We again
denounce, in the strongest of terms, all efforts whatsoever, by these un-electable
warmongers to take completely from the Haitian people, their right to self-rule,
their independence and dignity.

Moreover, the Canadian officials calling for this conference have no credibility
with protecting the rule of law in Haiti.
(http://www.haiti-progres.com/2003/sm030305/eng03-05.html ) They are not unbiased.
This new "Ottawa Initiative" conference, to be held in Canada next week, is just as
reprehensible as the first one in January 2003.

No resolution to come out of this new "Ottawa Initiative", this time with the
Chalabis of Haiti actually in the room, in attendance with the foreign
interventionist, shall have any validity or be relevant whatsoever to the
pro-democracy movement and resistance against such organized tyranny in Haiti or
aborad.

"We are under extreme pressure from the international community to use violence,"
General Augusto Heleno Ribeiro told a congressional commission in Brazil. "I command
a peacekeeping force, not an occupation force ... we are not there to carry out
violence, this will not happen for as long as I'm in charge of the force."

He cited the United States, France and Canada among countries pressing for the use
of force against armed groups." (
http://www.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=worldNews&storyID=6983380&...
)

For two hundred years, Haiti's greatest problem has been foreign domination, debt
and dependency.

No receivership by the U.N. nor by any U.N official, whether his name is Gerald
Latortue or Kofi Annan, is an acceptable solution to the problem forced-on the
Haitian people when Canada, France and the U.S. conspired with these Chalabis of
Haiti to overthrow the democratically elected government of Haiti.

By any means necessary, we commit, that, in this year marking Haiti's 200th
anniversary of independence, no occupation shall be legitimized or given a credible
"Haitian" facade. This new attempt by Canada, to choose Haitians with absolutely no
democratic constituency, both abroad and in Haiti, to better exploit what is left of
the Haitian people's dignity and revolutionary legacy is evil and reprehensible.

Colonialism is an act of war. Haitians worldwide intend to come together to
denounce, in one voice, all efforts by the morally repugnant elites of Haiti and
their various petit bourgeois wannabees, abroad or in Haiti, to legitimize rule by
gun, violence, foreign troops and through feeding the world lies about their dirty
hands and good and benevolent intentions. Only free and fair elections in Haiti is
acceptable to good-willed Haitians authentically concerned with peace and security
for the currently disenfranchised Haitian nation. No Bosnia or
African-continent-type receivership by the Western powers shall be deemed a "helpful
alternative" to the current chaos and destruction forced upon the Haitian people by
the international community led by the United States, Canada and France and the
Chalabis of Haiti.

We demand the immediate return of the rule of law to Haiti and respect for the
ballot box.
Paul Martin and Pierre Pettigrew's efforts to cement the Feb. 29, 2004 victory over
the ballot by putting a "Haitian face" to the Canadian/France/US-led effort to
re-colonize the people of Haiti are transparent and repulsive to the extreme, not to
mention another callous example of their bottomless racism.

No Haitian worthy of the gift of liberty fought and bled for by our African
ancestors shall stand silent as this final humiliation is being metered upon all of
us by Paul Martin, Pierre Petttigrew, Jack Chirac or George W. Bush and the Chalabis
of Haiti. We shall agitate, agitate, agitate until Haiti is free, all political
prisoner liberated and the Chalabis of Haiti and their death squad mercenaries are
brought to justice.

*The Chalabis of Haiti spread disinformation about the destabilization and overthrow
of Haiti's Constitutional government, recognize the illegitimate Latitude as their
leader and cannot agree to free and fair elections in Haiti because they owe their
jobs and positions with the international community from supporting the rule of
force, the former military, the FRAPH assassins and drug dealers, the killing of the
poor resisters of their brutality and from the orchestrated chaos and social
inequities in Haiti. With reference to this Montreal Conference, they are all
Haitians who attend this travesty and, in particular those publicly identified to be
going to said thieving gathering to further try and sell the last shreds of the
Haitian peoples" sovereignty and dignity:

Gerald Latortue
Guillaume B(Babaras Chanteuse),
Jonas Pierre-louis, Faroll?
Harry Clerveau (syndicaliste )
Romain E(Eugenia) B.Dorvil
Anne Métellus
Group 184
Members of the former Haitian military and FRAPH
All supporters of the violent overthrow of Haiti's democratically elected government.
And, bitter ex-Lavalas with an ax to grind or who where bought-off by the Chalabis
and Mr. Let's-Hoard-It-All-Imperialist.

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.
