James Orbinski was a founding member of MSF-Canada in 1990 and the president of Médecins Sans Frontières international council from 1998 to 2001. He went to the podium on behalf of MSF for the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1999. He was on mission through the Somalia disarray and Rwandan genocide in the 90's. He has now his own NGO called Dignitas.
He now has an NFB movie called Triage - see here. Unfortunately no screening in Montreal yet - will have to wait for the NFB to edit it in DVD.
