“The Montana Accord Movement Plan and Process offers the greatest prospect for resolving the current crisis and creating a sustainable democracy in Haiti. It is imperative that Haiti not return to the failed politics as usual, which means friends and allies who are serious about a new vision for democracy in the first Black Republic should align with and support the Montana Accord Plan and Process.” — Dr. Ron Daniels, Founder, Haiti Support Project
