Violent protests in the streets of Haiti, thousands of Haitians chanting anti-government slogans, and more than 100 Quebec tourists trapped in the foreign country.
They've been stuck there for days, but now a rescue effort is underway.
The 113 Quebecers are expected to arrive to Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport today.
Quebec Premier Francois Legault told reporters that a helicopter has been transporting the tourists from a resort hotel on the Caribbean country's Cote des Arcadins to the airport in the capital of Port-au-Prince.
Air Transat sold the vacation packages.
It said that the evacuation plan was made in co-operation with Haitian and Canadian authorities.
They tweeted that the plane will take off from Port-Au-Prince at 4:30 p.m. today.
Air Transat will provide priority to ticket holders, but they have a few seats available for other Canadians looking to get out of Haiti.

People in Haiti are demanding President Jovenel Moise resign.
They're angry about hyper-inflation and the government's failure to prosecute a Venezuelan-sponsored program, which sent discounted oil to Haiti, over alleged embezzlement.
At least seven people have died since the protests began on February 8.
