On a serious note, I discovered in Haiti that in Port-au-Prince, where the boujwa live, that they have Papa Noel, or Father Christmas. Out in the provinces, he's Tonton Noel, or "Uncle Christmas."
Of course, when I was there, during the embargo the big phrase was "Tonton Noel pap vin paske annbago" (Santa's not coming because of the embargo).
