Haiti - January 12, 2010 : Message from the Governor General of Canada
Message from His Excellency the Right Honourable David Johnston, Governor General of Canada
"While the tremors have long since subsided, the memory of the catastrophic earthquake that struck Haiti one year ago remains vivid in our minds. Hundreds of thousands of lives were lost as an entire nation was devastated. For those who are mourning the loss of relatives, friends and colleagues, and for the people of Haiti who are bravely struggling to rebuild their lives and their country, the cruel aftershocks continue.
On this sombre anniversary, I would like to remind the people of Haiti that Canada has not forgotten you. Our bond is strong, and we will continue to work together towards a brighter future for all Haitians."
