  If France wants to reimburse Haiti for the independence debt, it’s welcome to start at any time; I’d hardly begin to say that colonialism isn’t relevant – even in the modern age –, for Europe.

      You’d be correct; a country which suffered from colonialism by a European country; the effects of which continue today. Therefore, the effects of colonialism by at least one European country is still relevant.

      You said colonialism by Europe isn’t relevant in the modern age.
