Patrick Elie is a long-time political and human rights activist in Haiti. He 
served as the Secretary of State for National Defence under Jean-Bertrand 
Aristide's first term in office, and was the national coordinator against drug 
trafficking from 1991-94.

In the context of a coup d'etat, massive violence, and a UN occupation, Elie is 
a necessary and unheard voice in the Haitian political landscape.

Here, he debunks the myths promoted by Haiti's elite about kidnappings and 
insecurity in the country, speaks about the difference between armed resistance 
and terrorism, and breaks down Canada's role in creating the human rights 
disaster which exists in Haiti today.
