Good Morning Cuba!
- Senator Jacques Hébert

An unusual account of an extraordinary trip: The Honourable Jacques Hébert, former senator, prolific author and founder of Canada World Youth, has written a book about a recent visit to CWY's programs in Cuba. Illustrated with 70 photographs, this book relates the trip of 30 Canadians delighted to discover, or rediscover, this fascinating country, and to observe a group of Cubans and Canadians learning from one another and from their host communities. A wonderful storyteller, with a writing style all his own, Mr. Hébert demonstrates through this latest work his strong affection for the Cuban people and his undying passion for youth. The book is available in English and French. All royalties and profits from the sale of the book will be donated to Canada World Youth.

Cuba's Health Care System: Where Humanity Comes First
Ellen Bernstein

“The unfailing dedication of Cuban health care professionals has led to dramatic improvements in quality of life, for millions of people who previously had no other hope of receiving decent medical care. IFCO/Pastors for Peace is pleased to honor the diligent health care professionals of the Cuban health care system. We especially pay tribute to Cuba’s national leadership, whose vision of universal health care as a right of every citizen sets an example for the world.”

5 Decades of the Cuban Revolution
The Challenges of an Unwavering Leadership

Tamara Hansen

"The battles Cuba has fought have not been easy. Some were physical battles, such as the battle against the bandits in the Escambray Mountains or the Bay of Pigs invasion. However, most were not battles of physical might, but battles of ideas. But with every twist and turn, every up and down Fidel has been one of the first leaders to say, 'this way forward' or 'we made a wrong turn, we must change course.'"
