Support continues to move from Canada's North to the country of Haiti, which has been devastated by this week's deadly earthquake.

A number of Inuit organizations announced on Friday that they are donating a total of $90,000 to relief efforts in Haiti, where a 7.0-magnitude quake struck on Tuesday.

The contribution comes from Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami, Nunavut Tunngavik Inc., Nunavut's three regional Inuit organizations, the Inuvialuit Regional Corp. in the Northwest Territories, Makivik Corp. in northern Quebec, and the Nunatsiavut government in Labrador.

Also on Friday, the Northwest Territories government said it will donate $50,000 to the Canadian Red Cross's earthquake relief efforts.

Nunavut Premier Eva Aariak is expected to announce a $25,000 donation on Monday, a government official told CBC News.

Yukon Premier Dennis Fentie already announced on Thursday that his government would commit $25,000 to the Red Cross.

Military planes ready: official

Joint Task Force North Brig.-Gen David Millar told CBC News that plans are in place should the aircraft be requested.

"From a northern perspective, we have 440 Squadron, a squadron of four Twin Otters -- an incredible aircraft that can do short take-offs and landings, an ideal airplane for some of the affected areas in Haiti," Millar said Friday.

"As a result, we have initiated initial preparations and plans should that airplane and its air crew be required to head down to Haiti. And so we're just waiting for the call."

The Canadian Forces already has Hercules and C-17 aircraft operating in Haiti as part of the Canadian relief effort.

On Thursday, northern airline First Air sent two of its Lockheed 382 Hercules aircraft to fly search and relief supplies to Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic, where the supplies will be unloaded and taken to Haiti.

Another First Air plane, a Boeing 767-223 super freighter, will fly out on Saturday to deliver humanitarian supplies from Toronto to Haiti.

'Complete chaos,' survivor says

A former Whitehorse resident who survived Tuesday's earthquake said the aftermath has been horrific.

"It's complete chaos, basically," Sylvie Savard told CBC News in an interview Friday.

"Still a lot of wounded people trying to find some medical aid and shelter, water, food, and on and on."

Savard was working with a German aid group in the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince when the earthquake took place. Her house was spared in the disaster, she said.

In the first 48 hours after the quake, she worked with Doctors Without Borders, in part to help dig people out of the rubble.

"We started digging, people started digging … you could hear yelling under the debris, under the rocks, under the concrete," she said. "People gathered the dead, the bodies, put them on the street for pickup."

Savard has since gone back to the German group to distribute supplies to victims in the southern part of the island.

Aid efforts in Haiti have been hampered by the lack of places to treat the injured, Savard said.

"One of our hospitals has completely collapsed with patients inside," she said.

"Our second hospital has been evacuated because the structure is extremely fragile; it could collapse any time. So our two main hospitals are just no longer functional."

Savard added that frequent aftershocks have unnerved people in Haiti, prompting many of them to run out into the streets or into open areas.
