John Dimond-Gibson and two other members of Haiti Action Halifax have been 
in Haiti for over a month, looking at the critical situation on the ground 
since the February 7th presidential elections.  As John explains, many 
Haitians are calling these elections and Rene Preval's victory a turning 
point in the two years of chaos that the country has suffered since the 
2004 coup d'etat sponsored by the USA, France, and Canada.  John discusses 
some of the reactions to the elections from the most impovrished parts of 
Port au Prince, and also last minute attempts by the outgoing coup regime 
to consolidate their power grasp.

Interview recorded by Stefan Christoff and produced by Aaron Lakoff for
