	Letter to Caricom-Support return to democracy in Haiti--Appeal from Labor-Religious Delegation to Haiti
		She has worked in the solidarity movement for many years, and served as an election monitor in Haiti during the 2000 elections there.
		As you engage, during the CARICOM summit in Grenada, in discussions regarding the "interim" Latortue government, please do not forget the Haitian masses who voted for the democratically elected president, Jean-Bertrand Aristide, and who are now imprisoned or dying in Haiti for their continued support of President Aristide and for Haiti's right to self-determination.
		Tell CARICOM that there can be "no substantial program of collaboration", certainly not on behalf of the Haitian people, with a government the mass electorate in Haiti had no choice about and that came about through force and through foreign interference of Haiti's sovereignty and democratic process.

		Their groupings are united by their distrust of Lavalas in either of its manifestations, their anger at those who presided over the seriously-flawed April 9 elections, and their determination to use the present crisis to reformulate the rules of the political game to give them a better opportunity to compete.
		But after the Lavalas landslide in the elections in the summer of 1995 Aristide had second thoughts and the parliament aggressively questioned the prime minister.
		In spite of these negatives, however, he remains the odds-on favorite to be elected president of Haiti in the year 2000, when the constitution will allow him to run again.
