For her part Mélanie Joly, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Canada declared "With Maria Isabel Salvador (BINUH), we discussed the crisis in Haiti and the areas in which the inhabitants need support. Determined to ensure security and stability in the region, Canada and its partners are committed to supporting the solutions proposed by the Haitians."
