excellent news! – it's just so sad and unfair that of all places that could least afford a disaster like this is Haiti – makes a person wonder!

Radio news report this AM casting doubts that the rescued individual originally thought to be Mr. Marcil was indeed him. And from CBC.ca this AM: There is confusion around the fate of Serge Marcil, a former Liberal MP believed to have been located after being reported missing in Haiti. There were reports Marcil had been rescued and flown to Miami for medical treatment. It now appears those reports were premature, and it's not clear Marcil has been rescued at all.

So keep hopes up, all.
