Sunday June 30, the day of the celebration of Father's Day in Haiti, former Prime Minister Evans Paul (January 16, 2015 - February 26, 2016) delivered a message to all Haitian fathers:

Message from Evans Paul:

"On this special day, I would like to wish a wonderful Father's Day to all dads who, in addition to being parents, fully assume their roles as parents.

I salute these exceptional fathers who prove themselves worthy of the great responsibility of raising and guiding their children. These artisans of citizenship, forming the next generation perpetuating the ideals of greatness in our society, deserve to be honored.

I particularly want to highlight dads who, sometimes against all odds, have remarkably become single-parent heads of families, a role often assumed by mothers.

It is appropriate to pay tribute to fathers, biological or not, who, following the death of their spouse or due to the absence and even voluntary abandonment of certain mothers, have taken an exemplary commitment to the essential mission of the family. These fathers, despite these complex situations, offer their children a loving and stable home.

These respectable men proved that a father's love and devotion can rival that of a mother.

To all these dads, I say thank you and wish you a very happy Father’s Day. Your courage, love and dedication are sources of inspiration for us all."
