5. Canadian special forces took the airport before Aristide left
The first groups of about 50 French soldiers, the US Marines and Canadian forces already on the ground will be followed by reinforcements in a mission backed by the United Nations.

8. Coup d'etat in Haiti
The deed is done.
Haiti has been raped.
The act was sanctioned by the United States, Canada and France.
