UYves Engler uliLungu leBhodi yeeNgcebiso ye World BEYOND War. Uzinze eCanada. UYves Engler litsha-ntliziyo elisekelwe eMontréal kunye nombhali opapashe iincwadi ezili-12 kuquka neyakhe yamva nje. Nimele Kubani? Imbali yaBantu yomkhosi waseKhanada. UYves wazalelwa eVancouver kubazali abasekhohlo ababengabalandeli bomanyano kwaye babandakanyeka kumanyano lwamazwe ngamazwe, ubufazi, ukuchasa ubuhlanga, uxolo kunye nezinye iintshukumo eziqhubekayo. Ngaphandle kokumatsha kwimiboniso ukhule edlala ihoki. Wayeliqabane le-peewee owayesakuba ngumdlali we-NHL uMike Ribeiro eHuron Hochelaga eMontréal ngaphambi kokudlala kwi-BC Junior League. UYves waqala ukusebenza kwimiba yomgaqo-nkqubo wamazwe angaphandle waseKhanada ekuqaleni kweminyaka yoo-2000. Ekuqaleni egxininise kuququzelelo oluchasene nomanyano lwehlabathi, unyaka awanyulwa ngawo njengosekela mongameli weConcordia Student Union uBenjamin Netanyahu waye wathintelwa ekuthetheni eyunivesithi ekhalazela ubugebenga bemfazwe bakwaSirayeli kunye nocalucalulo lobuhlanga lwasePalestine. Olu qhankqalazo lwabangela umvandedwa omkhulu ngokuchasene nokuphembelela abafundi kwikhampasi - kuquka nokugxothwa kukaYves eyunivesithi ngokuzama ukuthatha isikhundla sakhe esinyuliweyo kunye nombutho wabafundi ngelixa wayevaliwe ekhampasini ngenxa yendima yakhe ekuchazeni ukuba luqhushululu - kunye namabango abaxhasi benkulumbuso yakwa-Israel ukuba iConcordia yayiyindawo yokuchasa amaYuda. Kamva kunyaka wesikolo i-US yahlasela i-Iraq. Ngaphambi kwemfazwe uYves wanceda ekuhlanganiseni abafundi ukuba baye kuqhanqalazo olukhulu lokulwa imfazwe. Kodwa kwaba kuphela emva kokuba u-Ottawa encedise ukubhukuqa urhulumente waseHaiti okhethwe ngedemokhrasi ngo-2004 apho uYves waqala ukubuza ngokunzulu umfanekiso womgcini woxolo waseCanada. Njengoko wafunda ngegalelo laseKhanada kwimigaqo-nkqubo yobundlobongela, echasene nedemokhrasi eHaiti, uYves waqala ukucela umngeni ngokuthe ngqo kumgaqo-nkqubo welizwe langaphandle. Kule minyaka mithathu ilandelayo waya eHaiti kwaye wanceda ukulungelelanisa imingcelele emininzi, iintetho, izenzo, iinkomfa zeendaba, njl njl. Ngexesha lenkomfa kaJuni ka-2005 eHaiti uYves wagalela igazi lobuxoki kumphathiswa wemicimbi yangaphandle uPierre Pettigrew waza wakhwaza “uPettigrew uyaxoka, abantu baseHaiti bayafa”. Kamva wachitha iintsuku ezintlanu entolongweni ngenxa yokuphazamisa intetho yeNkulumbuso uPaul Martin eHaiti (urhulumente wayefuna ukumgcina entolongweni kulo lonke umkhankaso wonyulo lweeveki ezintandathu). UYves naye ubhale kunye ICanada eHaiti: Ukulwa imfazwe ngokuchasene namahlwempu amaninzi kwaye yanceda ukuseka iCanada Haiti Action Network.
Njengoko imeko yaseHaiti yayizinzile uYves waqala ukufunda yonke into awayenokuyifumana malunga nomgaqo-nkqubo wamazwe angaphandle waseKhanada, owafikelela kuvuthondaba. Incwadi emnyama yoMgaqo-nkqubo waseKhanada waNgaphandle. Olu phando lwaqala inkqubo eyakhokelela kwezinye iincwadi zakhe. Izihloko zakhe ezilishumi elinesibini zimalunga nendima yaseCanada ehlabathini.
Kwiminyaka yakutshanje uYves ebefuna ukudibanisa abaphembeleli ukuba bajongane nezopolitiko ngoxolo, isenzo esithe ngqo. Uphazamise malunga neentetho ezimbini / iinkomfa zabezindaba zenkulumbuso, abaphathiswa kunye neenkokheli zeqela eliphikisayo ukuba babuze ukulwa kwabo, izikhundla ezichasene nePalestina, imigaqo-nkqubo yemozulu, impiriyali eHaiti kunye neenzame zokubhukuqa urhulumente waseVenezuela.
UYves udlale indima ebalulekileyo kwiphulo eliyimpumelelo lokuchasa isicelo saseKhanada sokungena kwiBhunga loKhuseleko leZizwe eziManyeneyo. Ungumseki weCanadian Foreign Policy Institute.
Ngenxa yokubhala kwakhe kunye ne-activism uYves uye wagxekwa ngokuphindaphindiweyo ngabameli be-Conservatives, Liberals, Greens kunye ne-NDP.
