The Futility of Foreign Aid

Canada, I am told, gave $1-billion to Haiti for reconstruction, where I am also told that 500,000 are still homeless.

One wonders if there is actual effective assistance given for this money since so little is achieved, or if the systemic corruption which plagues Haiti is the cause. What value is there to sending money to a broken system like Haiti or Afghanistan?
