Haiti needs our help. With the country being in crisis for years, the catastrophic earthquake that hit the island yesterday has literally shattered the nimble infrastructrure that existed. The is a human tragedy, one that should not happen in a world of such wealth.
 
It is time to stop the senseless quest in the name of hegemony, empire and military domination, and to seek peace. Canada, the US, France, Britain and other countries need to focus on helping people, and our governments should be compassionate, generous, and strident in providing the solidarity that is required.
 
Haiti does not deserve this incessant torture, and we are not idle passers-by on the street.
 
We can, and should, do something.
 
My heart goes out to Haiti.
 
Peace!
