Hi  Matt

I have been traveling to Haiti for last 6yrs and never had a problem with
being a Canadian.  Internationally we are the least hated of anyone we don't
have an agenda for anything.  We are a big country, with small pop and lots
of resources, so we don't need to fuck anyone.

The embassy for last few years is always advising not to visit. This could
be the reason for there concern.
If your people need reassurances about security E me there address and I
will try to  help. It would be a shame if they decide not to help because of
security concerns.

Security is always a problem and from my last visit I realized that secure
reliable transportation is a concern.
Making sure that a reliable safe car and driver is easily obtained would
ease peoples minds.
