Haiti's troubled government is accusing Canada of stalling in its promised delivery of armoured vehicles, and argues the delay is hindering a plan to clear violent gangs from Port-au-Prince.
Yet the Toronto company making the mine-resistant, ambush-protected vehicles says it's working as fast it can in the face of supply-chain disruptions and mistakes by Haitian officials.
The firm involved, INKAS, says it has moved as quickly as possible and has not breached the contract. “We build something, they would turn around and say, 'You know, we don't really like that; can you change it?' And so that has eaten up some time,” he said. He was speaking at a public event in Montreal's Saint-Michel neighbourhood, which has a large Haitian diaspora.
