Michaelle Jean
Michaelle Jean has had a variety of interesting roles in her life. 
Compassionate and caring, she has always used them to support her 
advocacy for freedom, equality, and justice.
*
The year 1968 was a dangerous and frightening time to live in Haiti. Dictator François 
Duvalier was jailing and torturing anyone who spoke out against his brutal government.
Many victims and their families tried to escape, and a lucky few made it to Canada. 
That’s how a little girl named Michaelle Jean wound up in the small Quebec town of 
Thetford Mines.
She grew into a beautiful, well-educated woman who could speak half a dozen languages. 
Although Jean now enjoyed a peaceful, prosperous life, she never forgot the suffering she 
had seen - her father tortured, poor people oppressed, women and children brutalized.
So Michaelle Jean worked at a women’s shelter and with new immigrants to Canada, 
helping others improve their lives. She began a successful career as a radio/TV 
broadcaster and filmmaker, and used her position there to shine a light on injustice and 
suffering around the world.
As she worked to build a network of women’s shelters across Canada and write about the 
hardships of immigrant women, Jean used her remarkable brain, but led with her heart. 
She became known for her sympathy for anyone fighting on the side of freedom and 
equality.
Then, in 2005, her reputation for caring and compassion led to an amazing opportunity; a 


chance to make an even bigger difference in the world. It came in the form of an 
invitation from the Government of Canada, asking if Michaelle Jean - the former 
immigrant girl from Haiti - would like to be the next governor general!
As the Queen’s official representative in Canada, she met world leaders, hosted important 
conferences, and traveled the globe as a spokesperson for the nation.
But most importantly, in this position Jean was able to lead and inspire others to follow 
her example. As governor general, she dedicated herself to breaking down barriers - 
between French and English, black and white, rich and poor, east and west, north and 
south.
After her term as governor general came to an end, Michaelle Jean was chosen by the 
United Nations to be a special envoy for her homeland of Haiti, giving her a fresh 
opportunity to help tackle the challenges in that troubled country.
She continues to lead with her heart, lending her voice and energy to care for the 
underprivileged, and helping to make the world a better, more caring place.
