Canada’s Governor General, Michaëlle Jean, gave this address on January 13th 2010 in response to the Haitian earthquake.
Jean was born in Haiti and lived there until the age of 10, when forced to flee to Canada as a refugee.
Canadian press outlets are saying that 1,400 Canadians are presumed dead in Haiti.
Haitians comprise the biggest immigrant population in Quebec.
In Creole, Jean says, “Ayisyen Ayisènn. Pran couraj. Pa lagé.” which translates as, “Haitians, take courage, don’t give up.”
