Stangely enough, I didn't have to do anything -- it just suddenly started working one day. A good job, Ansel, by the way, although there's always much, much more to say than will fit in a small space. Bonne année, tout le monde. Chantal, thanks for the tip, assuming I’m the person you’re talking about. Stangely enough, I didn’t have to do anything — it just suddenly started working one day.

A good job, Ansel, by the way, although there’s always much, much more to say than will fit in a small space.

Bonne année, tout le monde.

There is also geographical context too, though, also important and also usually missing. It is significant, for example, that Canada, France and the Dominican Republic all played roles in the coup d'état that deposed Aristide. And it is important that other countries have experienced histories similar to that of Haiti.
