Haiti

Hey delegates I'm sure you've all seen the news reports lately. The devistation in Haiti is a reminder of how small the world can be when disaster strikes. Small countries with few resources need global neighbours to help them in their hour of need. Nearly 2 million have been displaced with many of the roads and hospitals reduced to rubble. On top of needing to support third world countries on long term basis the UN and global community needs to be able to send large resources in times of sudden need. Take time to reflect on this issue in the next while. And while your at it if your a Rogers or fido customer text "HELP" to 1291 to donate $5 to Haiti relief fund created by the ONEXONE foundation. I did :)
