Haitian orphans arrive in Canada and new homes

A plane carrying 52 Haitian children arrived in Ottawa on Wednesday afternoon, the second such flight bringing orphans whose adoptions have been fast-tracked since the deadly earthquake two weeks ago.

“These children are the second group to arrive in Canada whose adoptions are in the final stages of approval and have been cleared by the Haitian government,” said Peter Kent, minister of state for foreign affairs.
