Haiti Relief

January 18, 2010

Given the devastation in Haiti at the moment, it is critical for all Canadians to dig deep and do whatever they can to assist the people of the poorest country in the western hemisphere. These people have suffered tragedy after tragedy over the last decades and a country as wealthy as Canada has to show it’s compassion in this time of need. We have a very strong record of the doing the right thing in these situations. I encourage all of you to donate to the charity of your choice and to do so as quickly as possible. For your convenience, I have included links to a few charitable organizations doing amazing work on the ground who would benefit greatly from your support:

Médecins Sans Frontières Canada (Doctors without borders)
Canadian Red Cross
Canadian Catholic Organization for Development and Peace
