For more than 80 years, CBC News has been the source Canadians turn to, to keep them informed about their communities, their country and their world. Through regional and national programming on multiple platforms, including CBC Television, CBC News Network, CBC Radio, CBCNews.ca, mobile and on-demand, CBC News and its internationally recognized team of award-winning journalists deliver the breaking stories, the issues, the analyses and the personalities that matter to Canadians.
The real investigating reporting is in finding out who is providing the guns and ammunition and why.
this
The guns are likely brought in legally by the Armed Forces, whom are the only entity allowed to import firearms, and then corruption steps in. Either guns that were going to the Police are diverted, or hijacked, or guns that are in the different police departments arsenals, either from procurement or from being seized, is then sold by corrupt officers.
Haiti has multiple police organizations that all compete with one another for political influence and greater funding. The Park Rangers have their own SWAT team and weapon arsenals entirely separate from the main Haiti police department. In a normal country, these 2 departments would work together where possible, and share information. Not so in Haiti, where the heads of their departments are constantly at each other's throats.
no accountability
Interesting that my rather benign comment about where these firearms are truly coming from was deleted. Was it TH-cam or the CBC who did it?
Now that's the question.
@@jakesoros2376Got an FBI warning when I posted that they recruited federal, state and local law enforcement for the KKK after early Birth of a Nation movie premiered at the White House. If you hit a nerve...or a hit dog will holla.
Not because one gang leader is because of every single Individual everyone is fed up with the fuckup system.
The second Haitian Revolution. The Chickens Have Come Home To Roost.
TH-cam.com@lakebrothersmusicvideochannel
Are they doing anything constructive about it?
"One gang leader?" There are dozen of gang leaders there although BBQ has been taking them out and consolidating their territory. One can tell that CBC is relatively late to the story considering this has been going on now for 4 years.
The issue lies with the institution, the system, and dark schemes such as extreme mind control of all Haitians residing in Haiti.
Remember that without good, wise, and powerful leadership, no country can develop.
Haiti is 220 years old. If they can’t get their stuff together now, they never will be able to.
They have been prevented from succeeding by the US, France, and very much Canada, for many decades. The Haitian people are not to blame.
@@alanmittlestead8490The US, France and Canada made the individuals erupt in violence? Really? Do they have no individual responsibility whatsoever? They chose to be violent and disorderly.
The U.S., France and Canada sabotage Haiti at every turn.
The West has ruined Ukraine,Libya,Syria,Argentina,
Cuba,Congo (D.R.C.),Palestine etc you think they have no hand in Haiti?
Look into the Ottawa initiative on Haiti of 2003. Look into how the Clintons sabotaged Haiti's🇭🇹 election in 2004.The chaos you are seeing is what the West wants. They want Haiti to have no functioning government so that they can steal our ressources and labor.
The information is out there, inform yourself.
@@squirmingstoic5707Easy to say when you’re not in their situation. I remember Covid here in England and saw people lose their minds grocery shopping. Imagine if there was a real emergency like Haiti. When society breaks down this is what happens. I do understand the victimhood mentality as seen in the US/UK but this is not that.
@@mandarkastronomonov2962Um, I don't recall people taking up arms and burning things in England during COVID while "grocery shopping". Not quite the one-to-one comparison you think it is.
They have no Infrastructure, No Government, No Police… NO CHANCE…😢
Which is why the more fortunate like us should help them.
@@SaltyCanadian Absolutely not
@@SaltyCanadianUnfortunately, aid gets seized by gangs and corrupt officials. Any armed intervention would also be considered “colonial intervention”. There is no perfect solution.
@@sumerian88 “it’s too hard we shouldn’t try at all who cares” this kind of thinking is why we in the west are in decline. If we are the moral leaders in this world (and we are despite what the Chinese and Russians say, and yes we’re not anywhere near perfect) then we have obligations to at least try to help people in need. Armed intervention doesn’t have to mean military, a coalition of willing countries that would send police forces is possible
Haiti has now become the most African country outside of that awful continent
This has been Haiti for decades and decades. Let them have at it and be done with it.
More that, it's been over 200 years. they've "had it since the 1880's." They established they are incapable of self governing. Fighting for and winning their independence was the worst thing they ever did-for themselves.

Why are you so interested in that subject? That your 2nd comment.
Send Trudeau there pls.
Remember when everyone clutched their pearls when Trump dared to speak truthfully about Haiti? 🙄
what did he say exactly....and what responsibility has this nation taken for what happens in Haiti. hmmmm
We take no responsibility as always..ask where the billions we sent to help rebuild? The poor people got nothing..
Trump knows nothing about Haiti, just like you. Trump is a liar… so who cares what he spoke about.
@@carolenelake688 WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump referred to Haiti and African nations as "shithole countries" during a meeting with a bipartisan group of senators at the White House, a Democratic aide briefed on Thursday's meeting told NBC News.Jan 12, 2018
Note - was he wrong? Nope!
@@carolenelake688It's not our responsibility to nation build the third world. We tried that twice in the middle east and it never works. We need those trillions of tax dollars to take care of our own.
Of course Florida.....
Rich Floridians paying for the destruction
Where else? Alabama? Florida is the closest state to Haiti.
All U S shipments to Haiti should be closely monitored for illegal activities.
Some unknown Americans must be paying and supporting the Haitian violence besides the one that was caught
@@ronnieitaquab1008 or very more likely due to Florida's incredibly lax gun laws they are able to send someone or people who have a clean record to buy these guns from legitimate sources and then smuggle them to the gangs. Its the reason the gangs in Chicago were once well armed despite Chicago having very strict gun laws. They would send a relative or pay someone with a clean record to go buy guns in Indiana or Kansas or something and bring them back. Its also the reason the majority of the weapons used by Mexican cartels are bought in the US. Its not hard to explain, not everything is because of some conspiracy by a shadowy cabal .
prison breaks + open borders 😮
another Dilbert success story - "we don't have homes to live in or food to eat" please give us both for free...
The majority of those prisoners have actually been locked up for years without trial or proper charges laid against them. They won’t cover this though because it doesn’t fit the narrative.

They can always cross the border to the Dominican republic. The bordercrossing at Malpasse is just 30 miles from Port au Prince
The border is closed @@carlcederboom4286
They are safe in 5 star hotels. 😂
The Dominican Republic is preparing for a massive evacuation of Dominicans and all other foreigners from Haiti by air.
I hope those prisoners aren't headed here To the US we got enough crime to deal with.
LOL oh they are crossing the southern border.
Exactly where they are coming into the USA at the southern border.
I guess they can walk on water. Impressive.
Where do you think they are going to?
Conservative propaganda has fried your brain
Socioeconomic factors :(
@ 2:38 is that guy bringing a nerf gun to a regular gun fight?
you beat me 2 it man
He may be a pacifist but he's not useless 😅
It's Nerf or nothing
When you get to the gun store after all the other gangs took everything
All he is missing is the glasses and the Nerf body armour.
I think they should send help to this part of this country. God bless you all.
This reminds me of the movie The Warriors.
Millions of illicit guns originating in the United States have "completely transformed the ecosystem of violence" in many other countries as well, particularly throughout Central and South America. Canada, too, is not immune to the gun smugglers and straw purchasers bringing illegal firearms into Canada from the United States. I hope CBSA remains vigilant to this ongoing threat to peace & security in Canada.
There will never be an end to the flow of unserialized firearms. The signal cannot be stopped. Certainly there's at least one Haitian whom owns a 3D printer, perhaps they could pick up that signal and have some teeth.
France has a lot to do with how Haiti had to pay them millions for their independence.
That was to stagnate their country as strategic get back and war/racism
Canada is much to blame for Haiti's long-time suffering.
Okay 👍🏾
Haitian individuals are erupting in violence, and it's their choice to do so. Judge the Haitians for their actions. France had nothing to do with it.
@@squirmingstoic5707 "Canada played a key role in overthrowing the president of Haiti and thousands of other elected officials, significantly increasing foreign influence and triggering the country’s ongoing downward spiral. On February 29, 2004, Canadian special forces took control of the airport, facilitating US Marines’ removal of elected president Jean-Bertrand Aristide, whom they forced onto a plane bound for the Central African Republic, an action Aristide described as “kidnapping.” Immediately following Aristide’s removal, five hundred Canadian troops were dispatched to patrol the streets of Port-au-Prince."
Did that reporter actually ask the question, does iit feel safe right now??
Exactly!!! What kind of question is this he aSk

@@Grand_riserthat’s not true! The other major airport on the island is in the northern side of Haiti. Port-au-Prince is more centralized. Nothing to do with rich or poor
The president extended his term to 2 years without the people voting for him

And so what! The people are unruly and indisciplined, they fight against every government they've had
@marekcracovia4061 I'm talking about Haiti. They've been fighting against every president they've had.
@marekcracovia4061 do you understand that it needs to be imposed by outside forces because they are incompetent at governance
@marekcracovia4061
No you need to inform yourself. They are a CARICOM state so they're apart of our community. If they do not want to be a CARICOM State and have the seven member transitional government placed, then they should remove themselves from CARICOM. As I stated, they've proven themselves to be incompetent at governance and it's not fair to the rest of us to get involved, we have our own issues. Haitians are the only people who cannot see that they are incapable of fiixing their own problems despite being independent for over 200 years.
I see this falling under its own weight in violence as the gangs begin to turn on each other and take out Barbecue
Wakanda forever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So very sad. I have friends there and they can't leave!

Huh almost like there should be more enforcement at the border...
Besides, these "International Police" do not speak creole language, so how are they supposed to communicate to the residents of Haiti, it's not like they are going to use a google translate app only to find out they want water, fruit, milk, bread for their children. They could use small boats or Catamarans and or tenders to transport water, fruit milk, bread to the residents of Haiti, clearly up to them to decide what to do.
They clearly speak French
@@InvisibleHotdogmajority of the Haitian population speaks Creole not French.
It's another form of occupation so that they can keep stealing our resources much like what's happening in the congo
@@user-jv5yp7el8d a French creole, same as the difference between English and Jamaican patois
@@InvisibleHotdog it ain't French Creole buddy. Call it Haitian Creole which over 90% of the population speaks and understands well. Mostly the educated and bougie speak that French. Yes Creole has borrowed many words from France but it is not essentially French as the creators of the language added on to their native African tongue. Meaning when they created the language they used Spanish and English words as well. They main areas of the language that was borrowed was naming the days of the week, numbers, and other minor areas.
Where's Victoria Nuland? The architect of this chaos? Retired a week ago
No functional government and you’re gonna send millions of dollars to who? Somebody’s gonna get rich.

These "gangs" also sound more like militias...
Haiti is like Africa in the American continent smh, I hope DR closes it's borders
The bulk of Haiti's weapons - modern weapons that are beyond what the local authorities have - are being shipped from Florida.
Florida. Imagine that.
is Florida de-arming ?
Caribbean version of Somalia!!
Haiti was Somalia before Somalia.
4:03
Of course they have. The whole point of their creation was to combine a rifle cartridge, with the rate of fire of an SMG.
15 years ago, these marauders were going through earthquake rubble with old shotguns.
Now that they have this new stuff smuggled in from Florida: They have the same equipment as the police and military.
Almost 5 thousands prisoners escaped?? 🤔
The police and gangs are waiting for the Kenyan mercenaries . While Barbecue is left as the resistance the only one trying to protect the people .
The 1987 Haitian Constitution states: ARTICLE 138: The President of the Republic is the guarantor of the nation's independence and the integrity of its territory. ARTICLE 139: He shall negotiate and sign all international treaties, conventions and agreements and submit them to the National Assembly for ratification.
He's not an elected official. That's what got him in trouble. And it was the population who rose up, not just the gangs
BBQ is a criminal.
Have fun with your "Freedom Fighters" and the failed state that your proud people will proudly escape from..sorry. You will just blame it all on "Western Imperialism."
But is he protecting the people, or taking advantage of the situation?
@lloydbrown9327 Yet. Ariel Henry was supported by the Biden administration. Now who is the bigger criminal?
Thank you so much your video,may be peaceful all the Haiti people,animals

Haiti is poor because they've been made to pay back money way back from the 1800s when slavery was abolished and they had to pay back the French government restitution for their freedom can you imagine that and they're still being held hostage by that money demand today
That happened 224 years ago, Get On with it! Take responsibility for your future instead of reliving the past.

😂
Why don’t the Haitians have any of the equipment needed to prevent or handle this. This was never mentioned. Perhaps the government underfunded the country and allowed this to happen.
Because the government is also corrupt and the aid they received was distributed to the people.
Wasn't distributed...sorry!
Government corruption, in Haiti??? How can that be!
The arms from Florida.......you don't think Victoria Nuland had a hand in this? Haiti too small to withstand a de-stabalization campaign
Because of the last coups the army did there which led to the goverment defanging the army less the country gets coupes by the army again
The anchor compiled various reports that, while largely accurate, lacked the historical and sociopolitical context essential to understanding the crisis. By reducing the situation to a narrative of "savages unable to resolve their issues," the piece missed a crucial opportunity to convey the complexity of Haiti's position globally. This portrayal underscores a broader issue: Haiti appears to have limited genuine allies internationally.
Good point
y'all were "Kings" right? 🤣 y'all "built the pyramids" rights? 🤣 BUILD haiti! BUILD africa!
So the Kings that build pyramids now needs "international allies". Who are these "international allies" y'all seeking... WH!+e men who y'all said is r@-@cis+?
this is a news report not a historical documentary that could easily take 20 minutes to explain all the way up to the French and Spanish setting up colonies there
@@pascallaw5909 Your point is well-taken, but it doesn't relieve journalists of their duty to offer context. They frequently utilize historical insights to shape their coverage, though often through their own interpretative lens.
For those of us closely connected to Haiti, or for most Haitians, the context is inherent. We've experienced it firsthand; it's a part of our daily lives, even for those who have left the country.
The crux of my argument is that international news organizations bear the responsibility to provide this context and illuminate the situation for a global audience. When discussing the news with coworkers or others, the prevailing question is often "Why is this happening?" This underscores the need for journalism that not only reports events but also delves into the underlying reasons and historical background to inform and educate its audience comprehensively.
@@shellz831 if Haiti seeks help from Russia / China, CIA won't be double tapping Haiti gov officials?
So sad
It's crucial to recognize that media coverage of "Haiti" often focuses almost exclusively on life in Port-au-Prince, which does not accurately reflect the situation across the entire country. Port-au-Prince is just one city in a nation that spans over 28,000 square kilometers. I have recently been to Haiti, visiting our historical sites in the north, and I frequently travel there, as it will always be my home. While the challenges in Port-au-Prince, including urgent issues, deserve attention, it's unfair to let this narrative define the whole country based on problems in a specific area. The portrayal of Haiti in terms of earthquakes, gang violence, and other issues as the whole country's reality is neither fair nor accurate. Moreover, the narrative often pushed by foreign media and actors, depicting Haiti in a state of constant instability to serve their savior complex, is intentional. This situation is complex and demands a deeper understanding of how global dynamics affect countries worldwide. Haiti's history, especially its stand against white supremacy and racism and its commitment in the 19th century to fighting for the liberation of all enslaved people in the Americas, is an indelible part of its legacy.
Let me guess Haiti needs more of the world's money in aid, again. The world should just ignore them.
Athena, tell world to give us back our gold and wealth and yeah yall can bounce. Fk the world!
Athena you know nothing about US and France's predatory excursions in that region?? They've squeezed Haiti like an orange. Look up Haiti natural resources and see who gets them. Haitians could have good neighborhoods, good schools, good universities to help prepare youth interested in a progressive political life of service to their nation, and good jobs. Let me remind you that the brilliant Haitian military leader Toussaint L'Ouverture whipped the British, French and Spanish, and only lost Haiti by way of French perfidy. The global banditry composed of parasites which rob burgeoning nations of everything imaginable, including Human and Civil Rights, is hopefully encountering reproof valiant, and counter check quarrelsome, when required. Will the new Haiti be on a foreign leash?

Doesn't Haiti have a military to help the police?
@QLHOOQ I saw a video report showing the Haitian people outside an army barracks, begging the soldiers to go to the streets. The inaction of the military to assist the police contributed to the turmoil in the country.
Haiti military is under 1k men’s. In 2020 they created a military force with the help of Ecuador a few men were trained there and brought back some officers from the old armed forces.
The army before this conflict didn’t used weapons but last week they defended the airport.
The police has more experience in this kind of operations. Sadly they are demoralized and under equipped.
It got gutted under the Duvaliers.

dude at 2:38 with a nerf gun. wild.
We should not have helped overthrow Aristide after he called for France to pay back the reparations. For those who don't know, Haiti in the early 1800s had the only successful slave revolt in history. Although they kicked the French out, France had the benefit of a navy, which they used via threat of blockade to force Haiti to pay reparations for freeing themselves. (Yes, they had to pay reparations to compensate their former owners). Since they couldn't pay such a sum all at once, they had to take out various loans to service the debt, and it took them until 1947 to pay it all off. In today's dollars the amount would be about 30 billion, or one and a half years of Haiti's present GDP.
Spending 122 years paying most of their money to France and America is the root of most of Haiti's problems, and it stands to reason that compensation would be just, so in 2004 President Jean-Bertrand Aristide demanded that France pay them back. Naturally, the international rules based order really didn't like that, so he was promptly overthrown.
They don't have food or resources but somebody giving them guns and Haitians don't see anything wrong with that?

He said Florida is supplying weapons directly to gangs cause y didn’t want to say the “CIA is arming the criminals in Haiti”
Jimmy chemisier not a Gang, Ariel Henry, André Michel, Frantz ELbe, Pierre Espérance, Émeline prophète, Michel Martelly. Boulos, Dimitri Vorbe, the killed Jovenel Moïse, they’re the ones who created the gangs
Where do the Guns come from?
From Haitians diaspora
America
Come from a country that has more guns than people and still does not have this problem, so stop blaming the guns and start blaming the people using them
