About this picture: Gov. Gen. Michaelle Jean returned to her shattered Haitian homeland Monday, just two months after the poverty-racked country was devastated by a cataclysmic earthquake.
Jean, who stepped off the plane in a casual green outfit that looked more military than regal, was greeted by President Rene Preval and Haitian officials before the pair flew by helicopter to the ruins of the presidential palace compound.
Montreal Mayor Gerald Tremblay accompanied Jean on her visit.
