Actually, well past the brink. A hundred million Trudeau bucks later …
The Haitian capital has been gripped by a wave of highly coordinated gang attacks on law enforcement and state institutions in what gang leader Jimmy Cherizier has described as an attempt to overthrow Prime Minister Ariel Henry’s government.
Armed groups have burned down police stations and released thousands of inmates from two prisons, and Cherizier has warned of “a civil war that will end in genocide” if the prime minister does not step down.
Henry has had difficulty returning to the country since leaving for Kenya last week to sign an agreement for a Kenyan-led multinational mission to restore security back home.
He is now believed to be in Puerto Rico, two sources with knowledge of Henry’s movements in the Caribbean island told CNN, after the Dominican Republic refused to let his flight land.
Whee!!! Cannibalism! (Source seems sketchy, sure, but this is Haiti).
I seem to remeber a time when Haiti was featured in the travel brochures as a vacation paradise. Alongside Jamaica, the Bahamas, Bermuda etc.
Yes, vacation in a shithole where you are likely to die from tainted liquor at the bar.
Trump was right, Haiti is a shithole, and we should be welcoming immigrants from Finland instead. The Clintons just used Haiti to launder more $$$ … and traffic children for sex And Biden has done nothing … absolutely nothing about Haiti. But it seemed as though Blinken was enjoying himself thoroughly at the State of Ukraine speech … as he laments Israel’s disinfection of the ME. Joke government.

About 40 years ago a friend and co-worker spent a two week winter vacation at a Club Med in Haiti and had a great time. Then again, Club Med had everything under control and you never had to step out of the compound to see reality.
I stopped going to Cabo … when my wife’s inherited Timeshare Resort had to erect a 12 ft. tall razor wire topped chain link fence around it and warned us about getting robbed by our cab drivers.
I’ve had no such issues in Hawaii. Well except when we wandered into a No-haoli allowed native-only minimart.
Here’s an interesting article detailing part of Clinton’s corrupt dealings with Haiti:

Biden should take note…F16s are not required.
But, but, but … aren’t guns illegal in Haiti?
Quebec and Haiti.
OK?
The return of the spawn of Baby Doc?
“embers of an armed government environmental agency that has emerged as a paramilitary group.”
Obviously not a good idea to arm the environmental agency
Dress up the Bong in his blackface dictator’s uniform and send him over to Haiti, as their new leader.
Replace Canada’s cabinet with the conservatives.
No one would notice.
Win-Win!
Well I guess we know for sure now, how effective and worthwhile all that “Canadian Help” was to Haiti.
All of that “training” from our RCMP and other “French Speaking” experts.
Any one got a ballpark figure for the Total Canadian Taxpayers Dollars laundered thro “Helping” Haiti?
220 years of independence, since 1804, but they will probably say it’s a “post-colonial” thing…
The USMC ran Haiti for a couple years in the 1930’s and a 1970’s or 1980’s documentary interviewed old folks who said that was the best of times…
I just read where the W/H may send the Marines back in.. yuck.
Gang takes government, gang becomes government. Gang imposes carbon tax. It’s the circle of utopia.
Typical Trudeau “problem-solving”: Throw money at it.
Another Melanie Joly project-affairs Barbie strikes again.
Dude looking pretty tacticool. Looks like my set up at the range. Cz rig with Vortex shake awake solar powered red dot, Leight muffs. Just the average creole nig fighting globohomo on his pedo island.
In a sane world Trudeau would be a case study in failure on every front, every gesture, speech, perspective, policy, legislation, directive and expenditure. The majority of Canadians are just now becoming aware of his nature after 8 years of gross incompetence and unbridled arrogance.
Canadians aware, hahahahaha, not freaking likely.
Literally the definition of a shithole country. Of course it was a French colony.
Hehehe….I don’t think language is the issue here.
It’s only a catalyst in this case.
Is there grass there?
Flew into the DR many years ago and the Haitians had just cut down all the trees for fire wood on the hillsides and as Jacque Cousteau said at the time they will lose all their top soil and you could see miles of brown water in the Caribbean. A buddy from the Bahamas told me the Brits dropped the worst slaves into Haiti .
For Haiti, that sounds like good news. They’ve clawed their way back up to “the brink” of collapse.
LOL
Send Michaëlle Jean there…she’ll fix everything.
They’ll call her Mama Doc.
Has Haiti ever not been on the brink of collapse, or in a state of outright collapse?
“Cannibalism is not widespread”, so stop stereotyping!
I’m guessing they miss Papa Doc and the good old days. Those videos remind me of Liberia maybe 20 years ago. The only party I feel sorry for is the Dominican Republic for having to share an island with Haiti.
Damn that climate change! Causing violence everywhere!
Haiti’s problem is that it is filled and ruled by Haitians.
Corollary: Africa wins again.
